"Adversity causes some men to break; others to break records" - William Andrew Ward (American author and scholar).

In this quote adversity is defined as a conflict within yourself. Like maybe when you have a hard choice/decision to make. In life everyone goes through adversity in some part of their life, for exampe when you are going of to college you have a to make a decision about what college you wanna go to, in-state or out-of-state, private or public, you might even have to think about whether you want to live in a urban or rural area. It is really important to take time and think about these types fo things because going to college and deciding on your career is a framework for what your future job might be.

To many students adversity is hard to overcome because they might have a problem and they dont know how to fix it. They could be going through a hard time with their family or friends and they might not want to concentrate on his work.

Everyone at some point goes through a time in their life where they have a problem they have to go throught, but i think everything happens for a reason so just go along with it & everything will be fine <3 (:

Your right, it is about tough decitions and hard times. But it's those tough times and hard decitions that give you a better life once you figure it out.
