Your Weakness is Your Superpower
Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit. — Napoleon Hill I think this is the best quote he ever said. It took me a while to realize what he was saying, but it finally makes sense to me. It is also one of the…
