Yeah, your entire article addresses perfectly something I have experienced and learnt over many years. In the same way as weaknesses as strengths, we are also able to turn others' bad intentions towards us into something positive for us. So for example, instead of saying:" No, they destroyed my entire plan!", with the right mindset we realize:"they didn't even notice that they led me to the perfect idea!"

The way this looks then is very unique, so I cannot go into details, but generally speaking, people's bad intentions have the huge potential to guide us in a roundabout way onto a pathway we overlooked before.
