Life can sometimes feel like it's riddled with grenades and landmines. At times, you step in a bad patch and life implodes right before your very eyes.

- Use your hiccups and mistakes to your advantage. Embrace Them! Transform a negative into a positive. Play your inner hero, not your villain. We are imperfect creatures but finding a way to use your situations, adapt it, and make it work FOR you and not AGAINST you, will get you further than you think.
