Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed on an equal or greater benefit- Napoleon Hill

 To paraphrase :    Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed on an equal or greater benefit ( OPPORTUNITY)

 Many of us despair when we fail, lose a business, a loved one have an accident.  Its not how we fall but how we rise.  Failure is just a stage.  It is not permanent.   We fail forward not backward.

This post comes from a poor family, father was a janitor in a govt office when he married my mother, My mother was a labandera to make both ends meet.  But thrift and perseverance got us through and we rose to become better off than others, better than before.

Many  great enterprises  rose from difficulties and hardship:  Netflix was rejected  by blockbuster,  Apple got rejected by banks, Musk was fired at Paypal, Job was fired at Apple,   Google was not bought by Yahoo.   and many many more stories of rejection

It has been said, after the rain comes sunshine.

Nylon was an overcooked plastic; penicillin was a strange spore that grew on a Petri dish that killed other bacteria.  Many breakthroughs did not come from lab, clean office environment.  They came from advesity.
