Stop blaming racism, politics, bullies, your crappy parents, your ex-wife, your lack of friends or anything else for your problems. Sometimes, I think our “problems” are really just opportunities to test our metal. We look at them as holes that we fall into, when really, they are the CHANCE to prove to ourselves and those around us just what kind of men we are! Josh Hatcher
About This Quote

  There are many things that go wrong in our lives. We blame all sorts of things for this, but the truth is that these problems are really opportunities to test your mettle. When you are faced with a problem, do not focus on it or think that it is all that bad. Instead, think of it as an opportunity to see what kind of man you are. If you are able to rise above the problem, then you have proven yourself to be something other than your problems.
