On your quest in life, you already know there will be difficulties and people will talk. But what about the fact that that you will fail?
At a stage, at a point, for even the tiniest of moments, failure will come. This may be either because of the lack of experience or lack of the right resources or even a mistake in decision making. It is certain that failure will come at a point.
The failure may come at a time you least expect or when everything is going so right, you may fail because of the most intangible mistake, because of something so unreasonable you have foregone/ neglected it. Other times, it may be because of a glaring reason which was beyond your control.
For you not to feel like a failure is the key to moving ahead. Yes, you failed. So does every other person as well. Because your counterparts have moved on in the race while you are correcting your error doesn’t mean you are out of the race. It simply means you have to work harder to stay.
Benjamin Franklin said, “Do not fear mistakes. You will know failure. Continue to reach out.” Feelings of failure that will keep you down and dejected will come, it is your duty to fight them and avoid them. You will remorse and may be tempted to stop.
Continue to reach out for that goal of yours and never give up on the dream you have.
Do not let your failure be the end for you. A certain fact is that you will fail time after time. But the best thing is to keep getting up every day, after every failure and keep pushing yourself toward that big picture dream you have. Do not allow the talks or the failure to dampen your morale. Accept failure as a certainty, prepare your mind for it and do your best to avoid treading on the unavoidable path!
