hardship makes you stronger theme
The time tested adage that adversity can be good for strengthening one's character, is explicitly featured.
Notes
As hardship and character development are very common features in stories, some care should be taken to apply this theme only when the causative relation (hardship leads to strengthened character) is actually pointed out.
Examples
In talesoftheunexpected9x04 "The Verger", the story concluded with the observation that Mr. Dobson had his very illiteracy to thank for going into the restaurant business and becoming such a smashing success.
