Success or failure(is it an option)
This is probably going to be a really difficult blog to write about. But, Hey! I am going to go for it because it's a topic. Success or failure. It's a choice we all choose in life, and whatever it is, it's a choice we ourselves have to deal with, but let's break it down.
Success or failure(is it an option)
Let's start with failure. WOW! people say failure is an option. Well me, I beg to defer. I think failure is because of fear of not reaching that point of success in the time they set it out to be, because they think it comes fast, or because they see other's reaching it fast so they feel they can and will as well. When they see it's not, they get discourage and end up walking away from it. Sometimes when they are close to being there.
Failure will never happen if you start with success on your mind and the drive and will-power to get there. OK maybe this will open some eyes of the one's who walk down the road of failure and give up. We all know Abraham Lincoln was rated one of the best American president's. Well it was pointed he had numerous failure's but it did not stop him from becoming the 16th president people. Let's take a look.
A common list of the failures of Abraham Lincoln (along with a few successes) is:
- 1831 - Lost his job
- 1832 - Defeated in run for Illinois State Legislature
- 1833 - Failed in business
- 1834 - Elected to Illinois State Legislature (success)
- 1835 - Sweetheart died
- 1836 - Had nervous breakdown
- 1838 - Defeated in run for Illinois House Speaker
- 1843 - Defeated in run for nomination for U.S. Congress
- 1846 - Elected to Congress (success)
- 1848 - Lost re-nomination
- 1849 - Rejected for land officer position
- 1854 - Defeated in run for U.S. Senate
- 1856 - Defeated in run for nomination for Vice President
- 1858 - Again defeated in run for U.S. Senate
- 1860 - Elected President (success)
NO that's a list to truly take heed to people. When I was sent this list, I knew instantly if Abraham Lincoln could do it especially with his huge list of failure's, then I can. What makes me any different from him or any other successful person out there?
People. "Actions will remove the doubt that theory cannot solve" It is only withing yourself who fails. You should never let your heart skip a beat to reach. You should never let anyone put you down, say what you desire, etc....will not get you nowhere. Be you're own person and stop becoming steadfast and move in the direction of success.
Success or failure(is it an option)
Success. Success. Success. I guess I can say this is the greatest part of all. There are so many successful people out here in the world people and they never failed because they never gave up. Now they may have had their minor step-backs but they still stayed in the game for the long run, because at the end of the road they knew their journey of success will be well worth it.
This is where my story comes in. Am I at that point of success. NO! Will I be there. YES! Very soon. I started out with my opportunity in Wakeupnow and because I let my thoughts get to me and get discourage because other's success was happening fast I quit/failed. But I knew I didn't want to be a failure and I knew what Wakeupnow could do for me so I joined back up, started reading, got my head right, and now I am pushing to get to where I need to be.
I failed once by quitting but sometimes it happens but you don't have to let it be that way and I didn't. I read, educated myself, put more faith, and more into it and came back with a more positive mind frame. You may be wondering what Wakeupnow is, well view the video attached and you will see. Aside from that success is what you allow it to be.
Success or failure(is it an option)
In conclusion people. You can be whatever you want to be in life. Whatever your dreams or desires are you can be and do it. BUT....Once you allow the negativity to come in and take over then that's where you lose hope and you fail. Will you receive it YES. Will it be tough to endure YES. will the road get rough and tough. YES....That don't mean you give up.
You invested in your future for a change and better life and once you realize that you are your own person and stop trying to please others, fit in the crowd, be like them, and do what your heart truly wants and forget what other's feel and say. Things will go better for you.
Reach from the clouds because the sky is the limit. Life is too short to not try at your dreams. Build foundations. Your success is in your hands.
