There are times in life when the best course of action is to take a moment to reflect and learn from your failure.
Stop Holding Back Your Success – Motivational Monday
Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time, and there’s no holding back.
I’ve met every type of person imaginable. The most common people I meet are defined by their past and their failures. It is holding them back.
They are amazing people with great work ethic and skill-sets, but they don’t take advantage of those facts. They don’t use their skills to take advantage of opportunities. Something happened in their life that is so outrageous, they are afraid to take risks.
Or something so small has been a part of their life for so long they are afraid of losing it, or any type of change.
You should be defined by your failures, and empowered by your success. If you don’t manage to win, you have an opportunity to learn. You are creating experience-based value and self-worth by looking into the wisdom of failure.
There is a snowball effect to success . If you haven’t started yet, you are bound to fail at some point – and that’s ok. You will fail until you succeed, and again, and again, until your success outweighs your failure exponentially. Your success will snowball out of control.
If you can pick yourself up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion some day.
