Failure is necessary
Mistakes are no mistakes unless someone makes them. Mistakes might be clumsy but what’s the fuss about it because we all make them.
Show me a man apart from Christ who lived and never erred… man isn’t perfect and so also is life. Mistakes are part of life process.
Don’t let your mistakes define you. Yeah! Some mistakes might be really big and bring upon you overbearing consequences but you don’t have to stay in the mud.
Get up, clean up and move on. All is not lost because you made a silly mistake just learn from it. Don’t give up on you dreams; give it you best shot.
Here is the thing… We live in a human society where failure is more or less a taboo. We have been given the thought that we have no excuse whatsoever to fail. If you fail, you are branded failure. Your name changes automatically. You walk around and people call you failure instead of you name.
Well, failure of course isn’t a pleasant thing and nobody wants it but truth is, we all fail at a point in time because we don’t have our way all the time.
Being human as we are, we shouldn’t be afraid to fail. Should we? I know this is such a big message to some of us. Especially, those of us with plenty of pride…
I learnt this the hard way. All the while I was growing up, I failed a whole lot and each time I failed, pride always had the best of me. I denied, I lied and I hid it. But guess what, it didn’t help me one bit. It only made me miserable.
It is just the grace of God and some very special people that help me get up again each time.
Truth is, almost every one of us started from failure –We have all met a point in our life when we failed miserably. And then we realize, we can start from that miserable failure!
So when we fail, it is entirely up to us to decide whether we are going to stay down, or going to get up. We are supposed to shake failure off and move on. You can’t stay in that pit forever.
No matter how fatal your failure, never give up because you can start all over from there.
Just sharing my thought…
