Your greatest pain can one day become your greatest asset. Look, I’m not just saying this just to say it. I’m saying this because it’s the truth. History proves it.
When you examine the lives of the most successful people –like Walt Disney, Thomas Edison, Elvis Presley, Mark Cuban, Oprah Winfrey, Michael Jordan, J.K. Rowling, and many more– you will find that they all usually have this one thing in common.
What’s that one thing?
They took their bad experiences –some of which were their greatest pains– and used them as fuel to get them to where they aspired to be. The bad experiences were a necessity, a foundation, an activator for them to accomplish their greatest desires.
The most successful people are known for taking their most negative experiences and turning them into their greatest assets in disguise. They never waste their horrible experiences. Instead, they use bad experiences as chance to discover something more powerful within themselves. They reflect on them and take what they can to change the status quo and to change their lives for the better. And as a result, they end up being leading business people, innovators, world-changers, history makers, you name it. They literally take their mess and turn it into their message.
That’s why it’s important for each of us to understand that it is our bad experiences that can be our greatest assets in disguise. We shouldn’t despise them, dread them, hate them, or want to forget them. Instead, we should allow them to teach us and mold us so that we can become the person who we were created to be.
I believe each bad experience that we encounter was tailor-made for our lives. Every bad experience is not random, but part of our journey. They are necessary in order for us to fulfill our purpose and to become who we are supposed to be. Without bad experiences, it would be harder for us to find our passions, harder for us to find our strengths, and harder for us to conceive of our most creative thoughts.
Bad experiences in some ways force us and prompt us into becoming what we never knew we could be. And with each bad experience, we have a choice:
We can allow our bad experience to hinder us, to make us become bitter, and to stop us from reaching our full potential OR we can choose to use it as fuel to our fire of becoming who we’re created to be.
If you’re going through something right now, whatever it is just know it is only a test of who you will become. You have everything in you needed to rise above it, and you can. You will. This bad experience will one day pass. It will one day become the message that you tell to help others who were just like you. See your bad experience as your greatest asset to inspiring others to also rise above their bad experiences so that they too can become who they were created to be.
