Accepting that we have weaknesses becomes a strength.
Weakness and strength are necessary for balance. No one or nothing is only weak or only strong. But some of us overlook our weaknesses, and even deny that we have them. That can be dangerous, because denying there is a weakness is in itself a weakness. Likewise, accepting that we have weaknesses becomes a strength. And by the same token, overestimating strength is a weakness. You should not be blinded by your strengths. The feeling of strength is not the same as having strength. Neither should you ignore your weaknesses. Know them well, too.

Success is rarely the result of one swell swoop, but more often the culmination of many, many small victories.
If it is true that strength is the child of effort and pain, then most of us will have the opportunity to learn strength ... Effort is standing up to the storm. Pain comes from enduring the worst the storm can throw at us. But then so does strength.
Life is a circle. The end of one journey is the beginning of the next.
