Have you ever had someone come at you with a plan, a challenge, or a goal that felt like it was aimed right at your heart? That's what it means to have an adversary — someone or something standing across from you, not quite friendly. It might sound stressful, but honestly, it can be pretty interesting to unpack.
An adversary doesn't always have to be a villain in a movie. Sometimes it's that coworker pushing you to do better, or even that nagging self-doubt that shows up at the worst moment. The question is: are you willing to undertake the journey of facing them head-on?
What Even Counts as an Adversary?
