There’s an old saying, whatever doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.\u00a0 I believe in that wholeheartedly.\u00a0 From my experience, not only does it make you stronger, it provides a foundation for the next time something like that happens.\u00a0 It hardens you a little bit.\u00a0 You know you got through this last time and you know you’re set up for success because of what you were able to endure before. In battle, it is said the soldiers fall back to their highest level of training.\u00a0 It is the same in life, in business, in whatever it is you’re facing.\u00a0 By going through something, you can make it through something else and the most important thing is you’re stronger than you think.\u00a0 People have been in terrible situations, and endured.\u00a0 I’m sure you’ve had hard times that you’ve had to get through, and you endured.\u00a0 You are here today, you will be here tomorrow.\u00a0 You will endure. One of the things about being strong, is you have to learn to use the appropriate amount of force.\u00a0 Too much, and you could break things.\u00a0 Too little, and no difference is made at all.\u00a0 So with experience, you will come to know how much force you have to use in any given situation. The problem with this strength is you may assume others are as strong as you, but they aren’t.\u00a0 Others are as capable as you, but they aren’t.\u00a0 Others can endure what you can, but they can’t.\u00a0 You are your own rock. At the same time, if you have tremendous strength, you should be someone else’s rock.\u00a0 You can not take on what they are facing, but you can be their support, their foundation.\u00a0 This benefits you both.\u00a0 You help them through whatever they were facing, and the shared experience helps you endure even more in your own life.\u00a0 By seeing the strength in others, and the weakness in others, you can learn different coping techniques when you face your own challenges.\u00a0  By being someone else’s rock, you become even stronger."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Get More","item":"https:\/\/algorithmforlife.com\/get-more\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Strength","item":"https:\/\/algorithmforlife.com\/get-more\/strength\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
