One of the greatest gifts you can give someone is thanking them for being a part of your life.

The good, the bad, and the indifferent…every person and adversity that crosses your path is on assignment to encourage your growth.

You don’t grow when life is easy.

You grow when you learn to face, embrace, and navigate—the excruciating worst of the worst—people and circumstances in your life.

You grow when times are hard.

You grow when uncertainty has no end.

You grow when you fail to turn back.

You grow when you have the audacity to stay the course.

Your circumstances, haters, and agitators can be life’s greatest assets when you decide to use them to grow.
