John Maxwell: 我认为，将坏的经历转化为好的经历需要有意识地行动。这不仅仅是偶然发生的事情，而是需要我们主动地在六个关键领域投入时间和精力。首先，是个人时间。我需要有计划地安排我的时间，不仅仅是看电视，而是通过阅读书籍、锻炼身体、改善饮食等方式来提升自己。其次，是家庭时间。我会和家人一起制定积极的计划，例如一起看电影、散步，或者分享我的所学所想。第三，是补救时间。我会利用这段时间来处理那些一直被我忽略的事情，例如整理衣橱。第四，是增值时间。我会每天抽出时间去鼓励和帮助他人，因为在困难时期，人们比任何时候都更需要支持。第五，是信仰时间。我会努力培养我的信任感，相信上帝会给我力量和安慰，同时也会努力表达感恩之情，并加强我的祈祷生活。最后，也是最重要的一点，是思考时间。我会每天花时间思考三个问题：这次危机将如何让我变得更好？我将如何利用这次危机来帮助他人？我将采取什么行动来改善我的处境？通过这样的思考，我相信我能够找到解决问题的方法，并将逆境转化为优势。
