Adversity is one way to become motivated. I can become so angry with something or someone it will make me determined to accomplish it or do better just to prove them wrong. I don’t know how many times I have said I’ll show you that I can accomplish this feat. The thing about adversity it makes you strive to be better that you were before. It is a great self motivation tool although it does not seem so at the time adversity is motivation.
Throughout my life I have had many adverse situations, nothing like some of the people I have read about, but my experiences were very real to me and seemed very terrible at the time. The truth of the matter is that every time this situation happened to me it made me determined to overcome this problem. I think that is human instinct to want to overcome adversity. This is what drives the human race, but sometimes I think we go overboard and start a real life world war. I think that adversity is very good for the human race on a whole, but each individual must determine his/her own method to overcome it. This truly an example of adversity is motivation.
I know that adversity makes me get angry does that mean that anger is a motivator also? If anger is a motivator, I know a lot of people that are very motivated. It seems like every time I drive anywhere people are really motivated at one another. I live in California and there are a lot of motivated drivers here, either that or there is a lot of angry Californians with whom adversity is motivation.
I think that adversity no matter how small or large is the biggest motivator of all. I know that when I face adversity I do everything within my power to overcome it. Sometimes it makes me careless and wreck less in my behavior in order to win. I have had to learn to control my anger with adversity, what about you? Adversity is Motivation.
