The world is not a bed of roses; it's a dirty place, a cruel place, that doesn't want to know how tough you are. It will bring you to your knees and you will be on your knees forever if you let it. You, me, nobody is going to hit you as hard as life, but it's not about hitting it hard. It is about how much you can take and get on with, how much you can take and keep trying. That's how you can win. Now if you know your worth, then go after what you deserve, but you have to be prepared to be beaten. And no pointing fingers, saying you can't do it because of him or her, or anyone else. Only cowards do that and you are not a coward, you are better than that.
