overcoming adversity

"Adversity causes some men to break; others to break records" - William Andrew Ward (American author and scholar). In well developed paragraphs, explain what this means to you. Some things to consider: personal adversity and how you have handled it; adversity the U.S. has experienced; adversity as an athlete or competitor in any event; future adversity you might face, i.e., paying for college, living on your own.

This quote to me means that obstacles can make anybody fall and quit but some people over come those obstacles and become great. We each have our own obstacles, they get put there to test us, maybe even to show ourselves how strong we really are, overcoming them can be hard but is definetly possible. The obstacles that get put in my way will not slow me down but make me stronger every time i over come them.

obsticles are a part of life but everubody can overcome those problems by triying and others take the short way out or give up

i agree with what you are saying many people can over come there obsticles that step iin front of them they just need to fight threw them with confidence and they will suceed
