nary clerk?" "Why am I not a millionaire who doesn't have to work desperately with such a poor salary?" or "Why can't I invent something to change people's life andcarve a place or myself in history?" The answer is somewhat simple: their ives are going too smooth. In other words, they have never ndergone the true adversity which prosperity often has its roots in.
Adversity often leads to prosperity. Painful and difficult as it is, adversity requires courage to face, great courage that not all people have. Thus, when confronted by adversity, some people sink and others overcome it with constant painstaking struggle. The latter will henceforth have intensepassion to achieve their goals and tremendous determination to overwhelm any difficulties on their way to the destination, for they believe the worst has gone by. Jiacheng Lee, who is said to be the wealthiest person in China, had suffered a lot before he made his fortune. Jiacheng Lee said , "If I had failed, I would have at least gone back to be a peddler again. I would lose nothing."It is obvious thathis success grows from the fertile soil of adversity of his early years.
On the contrary, those who haven't experienced the adversity are to some extent content with the present life, and they aren't determined to break up these pleasant days to venture into some unknown field. Therefore, they mostly couldn't bring their potential into full play. But it doesn't mean that none of the people living in happiness can succeed. Bill Gates’story also shows that prosperity and adversity, in a sense, are inter wined.
In adversity, while pessimists think there comes the end of the world and lose all hope, optimists remain cheerful. They will never be blinded by their pain, they know hope is there within,they keep struggling, and at last they will reach prosperity.是网上摘的一篇文,希望能帮到你…
