Jennifer Lopez knows everything happens for a reason.
In an interview for British Vogue on Friday, the actress opened up to Judy Robles, whom she plays in her new film Unstoppable, about how she overcomes “hardships” — and she has had to overcome a lot lately between her divorce from Ben Affleck, album failure, among other things! But instead of letting it get her down, she chooses to look at these as an important life lesson. Jennifer explained:
“I think the way I overcome things is not by thinking of them as happening to me but happening for me and what is the lesson that needs to be learned in the moment. When I think of things that way and stay in a kind of a more positive mindset about it, it’s easier to kind of embrace it for the lesson that it is.”

Ultimately, the singer recognizes that whatever is meant to happen will happen. Nothing is a “coincidence.” She continued:
“Because that’s really what our hardships are in life. What am I supposed to learn here? There are no coincidences. This is not happening, you know, just randomly. It’s happening for a reason. What can I learn and how can I come out the other side better, stronger, more knowledgeable and kind of evolve and grow from this point?”
Wow! We love how Jennifer really sees the silver lining in these difficult situations! Watch the entire interview (below):
