Despite thinking that you may have time, you really don't have that much left.
It's amazing just how quickly things can change in this life. One minute you are on top and the next minute you are laying on the ground flat on your back because you had the rug ripped out from underneath you. But isn't this the way life always works? Completely unexpected?
We aren't as much defined by our successes than by how we reacted to our failures. We are defined by the decision to get up no matter what happened to us. While that decision may not be easy, especially if failure continues to happen over and over again, it is probably the most important decision we could ever make. Unfortunately, for some, that decision to get back up after they have fallen cannot be made because the pain is too unbearable.
Why?
In truth, the thought of going through the pain and anguish again if failure arrives at the front door is so terrifying that it takes most people out of their game. In fact, it takes them off of the road of life and parks them in the dirt. For some, they will never pull back onto the road because that pain of defeat will define their emotions for the rest of their life.
For those who have a vision deep inside of them and who understand that failure is part of the game, they know that they must get back up. They must do it because they can do it. They don't accept a single failure or many failures as a representation of who they are as a person. They just accept it as getting one step closer to succeeding in their end goal.
We are in need of people who can take a stand for their dreams and goals despite failing over and over again. These people will serve as an inspiration for those who may have pulled off of the road of life. These individuals also shine as a great light in the darkness that shrouds the lives of many who travel through this rough and tough world.
So what do you say?
Live your dream.
