To have the courage to face challenges is to overcome weaknesses. The one who has the courage to face challenges surely puts in effort to find a solution for them. He is not caught up with these challenges but understands that they are an expression of his own weakness. To wish for the challenge to finish on its own without working on it, or to make effort to move away from the situation is escapism, which doesn't lead to success. When we are prepared for all the challenges that come our way we are able to finish our own weaknesses. We have the courage to understand that the challenge is not from the situation itself but is because of our internal weakness. So we are able to be stable and strong even in the most difficult situations.
