It might be during adversities they able squeeze out all their creative juices to challenge their problems.
Some of them are able to turn their liabilities into assets. I had read an article of Kenji Kitahara, who was knocked down by a train when he was two years old and had both his legs amputated, used false leg practice until he walk like normal people and later able to run a successful business, married and have three children.
Author Somerset Maugham was so shy that he would walk the street for one hour before trying to find the courage to make an appearance in a party. Later became one of England's greatest modern novelists and also a sought after social lions, despite been a lifelong stammer.
People who success made rejections into a springboard to success and they don't take it personally, maybe made them more determined to success. Leon Uris whose parents were Poland immigrants flunked English three times and dropout of high school to join the Marines, went on to become a best-selling author.
His book Battle Cry was rejected 12 times, finally found a publisher and later it was made into a motion picture.
Chris Gardner struggling from been homeless and later became a self made millionaire entrepreneur.
He was said to study in the toilet for his remisier examinations.
Some gave up at a drop of a hat and grumbles, while others who success seem to strive on adversities, which made them more determined to success. I think this is the difference.
