Boy, isn't that the truth. We are forged from our hardships, aren't we?
Yes we are. No shortcuts there….
Yes, and all human beings fall, without exception. It's just a question of how, where and when.
So true and in many ways it is your state of mind that can make the difference. Hope you are not in the path of the Hurricane Cheryl.
State of mind makes all the difference when you have to start again. I am not in the path of the storm. Thanks for your concern. 🙂
That is something I need to remember
I am right there with you. 🙂
We fail and then we brush ourselves off and start again.
Definitely a great quote. I like the one by Henry Ford about how many times he had to fail in order to succeed. There are very few high achievers who haven't failed a few times on their way to success. Thanks for the motivation.
So glad you brought that up! I need that reminder sometimes. Even some of the successes failed the first time they tried.
Wonder which candidate is going to be saying this to himself next Wednesday…
I had not thought of that. Time will tell…
Yet it seems a bit harder to dust myself off and try and try again the older I get… good thing my stubborn nature sees me through 😉
Maybe we should look at it from the perspective that these things keep us younger. OK Maybe not… In that case being stubborn is a good thing. 🙂
