Turning Adversity Into Opportunities
It takes some guts to turn an adversity into an opportunity. Come difficulty, many people get it into a shell. They sympathize with themselves, complain against establishments and expect sympathy, care and concern from others. A few of them, face the difficulty and do all it takes to lead a normal life. Stories of physically challenged sports persons and individuals are examples. However, there are people with enough mental power to look around and realize that there maybe many more like them. They have the strength and courage to think of a change.
