Adversity. I read a book over the last week that theorised that those who have faced significant adversity seem to have more success in growing entrepreneurial businesses than others.

From my own experience there is little doubt that the challenges we overcome over our lifetime give us more tenacity and a “never-give-up” attitude that certainly helps when any business faces challenges.

The other message is that regardless of the issues today — there is a tomorrow when you can use your skills and experience to take advantage of new opportunities.

As we move towards the spring of this new year there will be new beginnings for those who have a keen eye for what clients require to grow and prosper once again. There are opportunities around every corner!

“If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.“ - Anne Bradstreet
