Publisher's Synopsis

From its opening lines, "We're not meant to be happy, we're meant to grow," THE POWER OF ADVERSITY gives concise, concrete and inspirational instructions that show us how to change our approach to adversity. In short, stop seeing problems and start seeing opportunities. Although Al Weatherhead was born into privilege, he has faced seemingly insurmountable obstacles, including rheumatoid arthritis, alcohol addiction, congestive heart failure, two disastrous marriages and severe career setbacks. His conclusion from these experiences? It is through those tough times that we become stronger, wiser, better and more compassionate human beings. Concrete advice will help you harness the power of adversity and put it in perspective.
