Being Challenged In Life Is Inevitable, Defeat Is Optional

by Ben Francia |Last Updated: April 25, 2014

Life can be tough, but we can always get tougher. Our journey will never be easy; we will encounter multiple bumps and humps along the way. We have the option to stop or go on.

We can’t stop the challenges from coming nor can we hide from them. Just like what the quote above says, “Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.” We are in control of how we want to live our lives. We can either run away from the challenges or face them and be tougher.

It’s not about living a problem-free life. It is facing all the challenges that come and overcoming them. That is how we grow and learn. That is how we become stronger. Successful people didn’t get to where they are because they had it easy. They became successful because they refused to be defeated.

Life is full of possibilities and choices. We just have to decide which options to take that would lead us to where we want to be. Celebrate life and its possibilities and take on the next challenge that comes your way.
