Here's my Adversity Lesson:

Storytime... When I was 84, I lived in a pineapple under the sea. We had to fight to survive — I once fought to survive. “Oh my goodness! How do you know so much wisdom?” You may cry!

Well, something even worse happened to me. One day, when I was inventing the internet, a my friend, Zander managed to steal my new billfold. I was left extremely tired.

But I didn’t whine, or complain. I didn’t even look up at the cloudy skies and cry out, “Why, God? Why hast thou forsaken me?”.

Instead, I figured this would be a good chance to ask my friend, Zander “What is your product’s main value prop?”

That’s when I learned to swim. When you are faced with #adversity, you need to overcome it. It’s the only way to learn. Thanks to my challenges, and my willingness to power through them, I am now Assistant Manager at the Arby’s off I-95. You can do the same, too. You just have to believe. Thank you.

#GreedIsGood.


This was quite entertaining to read! :)
