The strength you find in a setback is the strength you draw on when things are going well.

After all, it’s only when your plan falls apart do you know how well you can cope. And you can only find that out by doing it.

I know setbacks are hard, but let me tell you this – you’ll be stronger for it. Better for it. You’ll tackle the next problem that comes your way with more grace and more power than you could this time.

It’s called learning from your mistakes.
