Description
Face it. We all mess up from time to time, and disappointment can be a bear to live with. You devise a plan, you execute it, and it fails. Sometimes, you just want to throw in the towel or take your ball and go home. But how mature is that, really?
There must be a better way to look at our mistakes, reframe them, and learn from them. What if we had Thomas Edison’s attitude and just kept going until we succeeded? What if, instead of seeing mistakes as the end of the road, we could view them as the beginnings of a journey to a different pathway?
Are you living out your own calling or trying to please someone else who never fulfilled their own? It may be time to stop pleasing everyone else and start pleasing yourself. After all, you only get one life to live. When babies are first leaning to walk, they don’t fall down once and stay down. They get back up and try again, and again, and again, until they master it. We can learn a lot from the tenacity of the wee ones.
From the examples of some characters in the Bible to those in my own life, you will see that we may have this failure thing a bit out of perspective. Failure can be our greatest fuel for forward motion if we’ll open our hearts and view it through a different lens.
