If you were going to tell someone advice on facing adversity, what would you suggest?
What are hard times for some are but a new challenge for others. Learning to make a hardship a challenge means to face it and assess it, decide to beat it,and then beat it.

Any ground lost is ground that must be retaken.
Maintain an attitude of being unbeatable.
Anything used to cause you grief is meerly a tool that can be used by you also.
Don't deflect but embrace hardships as building blocks to manhood.
Always keep in mind what a "man" really is.

The "value" of a man is the benefits to his family and comunity, the "Worth" of a man is the reliability and strength of his "word".

Just a few of Blitzzz's.
