Use Enemies to Your Advantage

Think how dull life would be if you did not have any sort of challenges to face. Some people prefer to live without adversity, but these same people are the ones who lack the courage to take risks that have the potential to put them in a greater position. Therefore my philosophy is to embrace the benefits of dealing with foes. They keep you sharp, on your toes, and toughen your skin up (FYI, keep your heart tender though), if you let them. It is important to relaize that many of your enemies only act negatively toward you because they fear you (or your potential) so they are only doing what they feel they must to protect themselves. So remember to never take it personal when you find out someone is trying to prohibit your growth. You must learn to process and channel your emotions toward a positive outcome. Let your foes push you toward becoming smarter, even more positive, and wiser. Think of them as free personal trainers helping to prepare you for greater challanges that will yield even greater rewards. Do not let their negativity rub off on you. Let their darkness make your light shine brighter and in the end you will win!
