If you do too much for others, they never learn how to think through a problem or deal with it and learn from the outcome. To get strong, you must flex your mental muscles and try.

This is so true and I can relate. I have been battling with some imposter syndrome and I am learning that if I am talented and skilled to do the job that I have to press through that fear and just push forward. Learning from experience and mistakes are the best life lessons!

When I help a friend in need, I can count on them calling on me the next time they are in trouble. I'm the same way. I'm often looking for a life preserver. The philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: "What doesn't kill me makes me stronger." That did not prove true in his own life. I believe where he descended into years of terminal madness after seeing a horse being abused in the street, or so the story went when I was in school.
