If at first you don’t succeed, just keep trying.
Failure is to be expected in any worthwhile pursuit. Too many are vying for the
prize to even take notice of those who give up.
You must struggle to achieve a dream. And everything will
stand in your way. Ignore the naysayers, and do what they would not.
Better yet, use their negativity as fuel. Let it stoke
the fires within, filling you with the desire to achieve. Leave them in the dust,
with their bitterness as company.
Many of those who have succeeded will attempt to
discourage you. They do not want competition. Their desire is not to be the
best, but rather to hold on to some ephemeral perch.
Success is not dependent
on someone else’s failure. Shoving others down means there will be no one to
pick you up. Light shines and we can always use more of it.
If you try and fail, you have not tried hard enough. You
have not fought long enough. Determine where you are, and decide what you need
to do to use your stumbling blocks to build a bridge.
A man is a warrior if he is willing and able to fight. A hero is beyond such a noble pale. My friend, we must be wise if our courage is not to prove foolishness. That said, you are one of those precious few who is made of the mettle for so much more. FIGHT!
ReplyDeleteOne thing I will not do is give up. Even solid stone can be worn away by the relentless tide.
