One day, a young woman went into her mothers kitchen, overwhelmed by life’s struggles she didn’t know how to keep going and wanted to give up. Her Mother placed three pots of water on the stove. Once the water was boiling, she put a carrot in one, an egg in another, and coffee beans in the third.

After some time, she took them out and asked her daughter what she saw:

• The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting.  However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak. 
• The egg, once fragile with a soft center, in the harsh conditions of the boiling water had become hardened inside.
• But the coffee beans? They had transformed the water itself into something rich, aromatic, and completely wonderful.
• Her mother smiled and said, "Life’s challenges are like boiling water. You can let them weaken you like the carrot, harden you like the egg, or you can be like the coffee bean—transforming the situation around you into something better."
