The most critical concept in life is self-reliance. Emerson wrote a fantastic essay on the matter. A politically correct society harms one's personal growth. A man is revealed in how he reacts during difficulty. It is easy to be excellent in peaceful times.
"Bad times have a scientific value. These are occasions a good learner would not miss."
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
