When individuals who have successfully overcome adversity and achieved social recognition view the world through their ability to conquer personal struggles, challenges emerge. Seeing the experience of overcoming hardships through diligent effort as an opportunity to cultivate genuine self-confidence enhances positive self-esteem.

A dry, watery zone is formed when the river flows from north to south. In other words, the city was born under the influence of disease. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
