Why?

I was lost. But I’ve realized that while there can be bad situations, it’s not your past that determines success.

Whose fault is it then?

Many of us feel that it’s someone else’s fault that made us who we are today — sad and hopeless, or maybe confident and happy. To be honest with you: IT’S YOUR OWN FAULT. I’m not perfect, nor are you, but just like a hero, a villain also has something in common.

What do you make of a bad situation?

Let’s look at Bruce Wayne. When Bruce (Batman) was a kid, his parents died. In a person’s life, there are many difficult things to face, but the death of a parent or close relative is one of the hardest to process. Bruce shows us what he made of his “bad situation.” We can also look at Superman, Spider-Man, and even Nelson Mandela.

It’s up to you. You can make the choice.

Define success

I once heard a quote from the self-improvement YouTuber Collin The Chad:

“Success is not about what you achieve, it’s about what you leave behind. If you build something, build it to last.”

Hope

I hope you take this bit of info as inspiration — use it to improve yourself and help others. Remember, it’s not where you came from; it’s where you are going. Be the hero, live with grief and anger.

Reflection

Sometimes you have to get lost to find a path that no one else can see.
