Into the Storm: How to Turn Adversity Into Your Advantage

Adversity is guaranteed. We've all experienced it, and we will continue to experience it. Life is not about our adversity; it is about how we respond to it. Because if we have the correct perspective, we can use adversity to our advantage.

In this story, we look at a high school student in the middle of a difficult season. He has two options: he can face it or avoid it.

He leans on the wisdom from a well-known story about how cows and bison differ in their approach to storms. Cows, sensing fear, turn and run. They want to get to safety, but end up stuck in the storm. Bison, on the other hand, go into the storm. They still deal with the storm, but they experience less of the struggle.

Into the Storm is a story for all of us on how to handle adversity, build mental toughness, and find strength amid the struggle.
