It’s not how many times you get knocked down that counts!

A poem that I love has a line in it that says; “...even the darkest night must give way to the morning light of a new day.”

This reminds me after a bad day that this day shall pass and no matter how dark my mood or no matter how bad my day is, it , the day will end, and a new day with endless possibilities for success will replace it.

This reminds me that it’s not how many time you get knocked down or fall down that counts, it’s how many times you get up. You just have to keep getting up, dust yourself off, learn from your mistakes and keep pursuing success.

I read an article which said that venture capitalist are more likely to invest in your new company, if it’s your second attempt or more. They feel the lessons learned from a failed business are invaluable and often help the second business succeed.

I believe this is a reasonable thought because failure can make you humble, careful and if your able to objectively reflect on the failure and learn from it your ahead in the game.

So if your down...rise up...reflect on the reasons for failure, map out a plan for correcting those problems.
And go forth to try again.
