英文原文

Fearing your problems is not a solution. It's an impulsive response that forbids you from challenging it due to the fear of defeat. What good is that saved sense of being undefeated when you haven't even tried to beat the biggest of your life monsters? 

害怕问题并不能解决问题。它只是因害怕失败而阻止你去挑战问题的冲动反应。当你甚至还没有尝试去打败生活中最大的“怪兽”时，保持那种未被打败的感觉又有什么用呢？

At times, when you are struck by life's biggest challenges, you might ask yourself, "Why me? Why did life choose to hit me with the hardest punch?" The answer that you should be giving yourself is that it's because you are the only one who can bear it and still survive—not survive, but thrive in this world. 

有时，当你被生活中最大的挑战所击倒时，你可能会问自己：“为什么是我？为什么生活要选择用最重的一拳来打击我？”你应该给自己的答案是，这是因为你是唯一能承受这一切并依然生存下来的人——不仅生存下来，还要在这个世界上茁壮成长。

No known warrior became known to leave his name in the pages of history without having scars on his body. The problems in your life are injuries that, when overcome, would merely become scars of pain and suffering on your body. Scars that would remind you of the lessons you have learned, mountains you have conquered, and enemies that you have defeated. So keep that in mind and keep charging against the enemies. Because no matter how strong and tough your problems boast to be, beneath them, they are always afraid of you.

众所周知，没有哪位勇士是不留伤疤而名垂青史的。你生活中的问题就像身上的伤口，一旦被克服，它们就只会变成你身体上疼痛和苦难的疤痕。这些疤痕会提醒你，你已经学到了教训，征服了高山，打败了敌人。所以，记住这一点，继续向敌人冲锋。因为无论你的问题多么强大和棘手，在它们内心深处，它们总是害怕你的。
