One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adver).From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents, afflictions and difficulties.Some are of our making but many confront us through no fault of our own.While we cannot choose the adversity we can choose our attitude towards it.
Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident.He was deter-mined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aces in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans.He was an inspiration to others during the war.He said, "Don't listen to any-one who tells you that you can't do this or that.That's nonsense.Make up your mind, you'll never use crutches()or a stick, then have a go at everything.Go to school, join in all the games you can.Go anywhere you want to.But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible."The biographies () of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced.The common thread is that they did not become depressed.They chose their attitude.They chose to be positive.They took on the challenge.They won.
Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.
