“I don’t measure a man’s success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom.”
– George S. Patton

General George Patton was especially equipped to judge the spirit and fight within a person. During his tenure as a General of the U.S. Army during World War II, he famously defeated German forces in France and Germany. His military leadership helped tilt the tides of war. He was known for his unrelenting discipline and his battle philosophy was notorious: “We shall attack and attack until we are exhausted, and then we shall attack again.”

It is with this same spirit that we must tackle our toughest problems. You shouldn’t give up because you think you’ve hit bottom. It is in those moments that you discover your true character.

We must overcome obstacles despite all odds. We must posses that fighting spirit. We must continue on and never give up.

Will you give up or will you bounce back higher than ever?
