You Only Fail if You Quit
This week we look at a quote from the Bible that articulates a belief that transcends religious, ethnic or gender differences.
“For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again.” [Proverbs 24:16]
What this means to me:
If you really want something you can never give up. You must persist until you achieve your goal.
People fail for only two reasons:
- They don’t have a goal so they don’t know what success looks like.
- They give up.
That’s it. Those are the only two reasons for failure.
When you buy-in to this philosophy, you become a powerful person.
Think about it. If you believe in this way of thinking (and just about all successful people do) it is only a matter of time until you achieve ANY goal.
Please reflect on this for a few days. This one philosophy completely changed my life.
