What Is Something That Made You Stronger - Opinion by Shaun Stenning


Think for a minute about your life and the experiences that have shaped you. What do you see? When I do this, I recall not the times I passed the exam, got the job or grant, fell in love, or made a new friend. I see the moments in my life that were painful the situations that exhausted me emotionally and left me nervous about where and what I was doing. I remember these experiences not because they made me want to retreat from the world, but because they helped me evolve within it.


“What made me a stronger person is that I look things into a positive perspective, I look at things as a cup that is half full, and no matter what life throws at me, I am always positive in the end. I know it is easier said than done, but being positive is easy, all you have to do is be strong, be who you are, always be yourself, make sure that you surround yourself with positive and great energy throughout your day every day.” Shaun Stenning said.


According to Shaun Stenning, “Always know you are worth it, you are important, you are a unique, special, confident, strong and beautiful person. As long as you know that for yourself, you do not need others to tell you all that.”


Here are some life experiences that made Shaun Stenning stronger:


Letting Others Decide Things

At some point or another, you'll probably have a friend or family member who makes you doubt absolutely every decision you make


Hating Your Job

You may feel like it extinguishes any ounce of creativity you once had. Or you may just feel bored like you're wasting away.


Unhealthy Relationships

As much as bad relationships hurt at the time, they can lead you to healthier relationships after the fact.


Falling Short

Most of us want to be perfect at what we do and who we are. We think that being perfect would protect us from the hard things in life


All of these experiences push us to question what we want, who we are, and how we want to live and challenge ourselves. They aren’t necessarily feel-good experiences, but a lot of them are what we need to live through to understand we have a choice in who we are and how we live.
