Prosperity① is a great teacher； adversity② a greater.
We can always learn more from challenging③ times than from good times.
Adversity is the catalyst④ that forces us to stretch. It propels us to find solutions to problems we never would have considered if not for adversity.
Adversity can provide the fuel⑤ that sparks strengths we didn’t realize we had within us.
How we cope with adversity is also a learning experience. There are times in all of our lives where we have handled adversity well， and times where we have not.
Next time adversity strikes， remember， you can use it to your adversity by learning from it.

逆境是一种优势
顺境是一位好老师；逆境却可以是更好的老师。
我们从困难的时候学到的东西总是比从快乐的时候多很多。
逆境是促使我们全力以赴的催化剂。它驱使我们找到解决问题的方法，如果不是身处逆境，也许我们永远不会考虑到。
逆境能提供激发新潜能火花的燃料，而我们以前却没有意识到自己拥有这些潜能。
如何应对逆境也是一次学习的经历。在我们的一生当中，有处理得好的时候，也有不妥的时候。
当下一次逆境的来临的时候，记住：你可以从逆境中学习，使之成为你的优势。
