Have you ever noticed how through hard times you learn to grow the most? Maybe you don't realize it as it's happening, but later, after the pieces have been picked up, you're a stronger person because of it. In life, you're going to get dealt good cards and you're going to get dealt bad ones. It's all about rolling with it and making the most of every situation. More often than not, people are miserable because they allow themselves to be. You can either bounce back from negativity or you can stay down. Ultimately, it's your choice to be weak or be strong.
Author Karen Salmansohn writes, "Optimistic people tell themselves that setbacks are temporary, confined to that one situation, and are usually about the other person, not a character defect in themselves. They tend to assume that bad events are an exception, and good things will continue to happen. You can't change your past, but you can control its effects on your future."
