Do not present yourself in front of evil
The Salaf would block all paths that lead to evil so now the chance lessens. There is a hadīth where the Prophet says that he blocked all the paths that lead to fitnah [or something to that extent] in his heart. This is Hikmah.
A person doesnt just throw himself in front of a bus and says that he is able to survive if it hits him. This is stupidity. Or goes onto a battlefield without a shield while they are arrows flying all around him. If a person think that swords are the only point of attack that the enemy has then he is a fool. The Shaytān has more tools that we know.
Rather, when a person constantly protects himself from evil and fitnah this is what creates discipline and strength within a person such that he is able to actually protect himself when he is tested.
Away from this, a person must have determination and must be able to overcome. He must have perseverance and will. This is from the keys to success. A person must be able to see the attacks of the enemies so that when they are in front of him he can recognise and acknowledge what he should avoid and how he should act and how he should not act… what he should do and what he should not do.. etc.
