“I always tried to turn every disaster into an opportunity”
— John D. Rockefeller

Simplified Meaning:
When faced with bad situations, instead of getting stuck feeling sad or angry, find a way to make something good come out of it. For example, imagine you lose your job. Instead of seeing it just as a terrible thing, think of it as a chance to start a new career you’ve always dreamed about but never had the courage to pursue. Remember Thomas Edison and the invention of the light bulb. He failed many times before he succeeded, but he used each failure to learn and improve, turning setbacks into steps toward his goal. When life gets tough, turn your stumbling blocks into stepping stones. This way, bad moments can lead to new beginnings and better opportunities. It’s like turning lemons into lemonade—making the best out of a bad situation.
