REVISED :)

After all, I’m really happy about the topic I chose for my semester-long research.  It has actually changed my approach to challenging situations in a more positive way.  In fact, I use to avoid challenges rather than seek them, and after all my findings and readings, I’ve realized the importance of obstacles.  The only way to become stronger, whether it’s physically, emotionally, or psychologically is being challenged- it’s that simple.  As bad as it sounds, it’s good to get heartbroken (emotionally challenged) a few times because it prepares you for what is yet to come.  You should be grateful for intense practices because if you can get through them, you know you have accomplished something and you are continuously becoming physically and psychologically stronger.  Your mind and body might tell you to quit, but your heart tells you to keep going.  Countless of people complain about teachers who assign group projects, because there will always be that ONE person who screws everything up.  To make matters worse, some professors will deduct points off your overall grade if you decide to change to a different group.  So, what should you do…drop the class? Of course, not!  It will benefit you in the future.  Foremost, you’ll learn how to deal with people who are irresponsible, annoying, disrespectful, and so on.  When you start your career, the odds of having a LOVELY boss are very low.  So what should you do…quit? Of course, not!  You should get the best out of it by taking a different approach and having a positive view.  Every time you’re confronted with negative people, just remember that it’ll help you grow as a person; it will build your character! =) So, if you’re wondering how resilience is linked with challenges, resilience is merely developed through adversities! Seek them, appreciate them, and learn from them. Build your resilience because life isn’t easy, but it’s worth living!
