About This Quote
We are surrounded by adversity but we shall triumph because we have a greater spirit. Optimism is good, but not when it is blind to reality. The real test of our attitude towards life’s challenges is to be able to see the good in what’s happening. When bad things happen, it can be hard to see any positive aspect given that everyone expects to get what they want. But, if you are able to look for the good in adversity, your attitude will be more positive and you will perform better even in difficult times.
