I agree with your opinion that how we respond to a problem will determine our failure or success. Everyone has different conditions and everyone experiences different trials, problems and obstacles too.
But in essence, all of them have the same way even though everyone's conditions are different and the problems they face are also different, namely by not giving up easily to face the problems that are coming to us.
Most people will feel that they give up easily if they fail to overcome or go through the problems they face because they do not want to evaluate themselves or evaluate the failure factors they experience.
Even though we as humans are endowed with brains for us to think and to overcome various problems in this life, most of us tend to be lazy to think and to develop ourselves and then just give up.
