Corner Yourself

Never run away from a difficult situation. By cornering ourselves into a desperate, strenuous, but resolute struggle, we often discover problem-solving clues we would have otherwise overlooked.

We have all heard of heroic, superhuman efforts exerted in a crisis, like a fire. Truly, it is when our backs are against the wall that our resolute determination can lead us to exert unbelievable force.

Human beings tend to take the easy way out, but mentally cornering ourselves into an inescapable situation can produce results that amaze even ourselves.
