Sometimes life feels like it sucks.
For example this guy named Jerry worked for his dad who was a mason. And Jerry’s job was to catch bricks being thrown down to him while he stood on scaffolding. Each time he dropped a brick his dad would reduce his minimal pay even further. But in that dank soil was planted a powerful seed of being able to catch nearly anything thrown at him.
A few decades later, Jerry Rice set the record for scoring the most touchdowns in NFL history. The guy could catch everything.
Every perceived set-back has opportunities of greatness tethered to it.
