I woke up at 3am this morning, wide awake, my mind racing with thoughts of did I do this right or should I have done that different & so on & so on. Then after about 30 minutes of questioning everything Im doing in life it hit me, success in anything in life is the direct result of overcoming the little failures you encounter along the way, and refusing to give up. The key is to keep pushing & getting back up no matter how many times you may fail. Here are a few good examples: Albert Einstein- did poor in grade school & even failed his first college entrance exam, yet he became one of, if not the most brilliant man in history. Jerry Rice- never made it to a Division 1 school to play College Football, however he went on to become one of the greatest NFL Receivers of all time. George Lucas- his first movie bombed, causing every major movie studio to turn down his next film. Can you imagine life now if he had never went on to create the very first Star Wars movie that we watched as kids? Elvis Presley- his High School music teacher told him he couldnt sing. What would life be like if he had listened, gave up, & never pursued his dream? These are just a handful of examples that if you never give up, & you realize that the small failures in life are just part of the pathway to success, you will eventually achieve greatness!
