"Men's best successes come after their disappointments."
This quote is from Henry Ward Beecher. He was an aboltionist. Aboltionism was a movement to end human slavery. I didn't know who he was, I googled him after I found this quote.
Anyway, I chose this quote for this week because it teaches a valuable lesson. You won't be successful at your first try. You will fail. But that failure will make you stronger and more knowledgeable so that in your next try you'll do a better job. You may fail again and again and again. But if you don't quit, you'll probably reach your goals. You just have to be strong and not go down on the hard times!
I find inspiration on athletes for these kinds of things. My favorite sport is basketball. So let me give you an example: Kobe Bryant is one of the best players in the NBA (the best in my opinion) but he was not always like that. I remember this time when all the Lakers fans hated him and he wanted to trade and go to another team. They didn't let him. So he worked, and worked and worked some more. Slowly he elevated his game and setted a standard for excellence in his department. Now look where he's at. 2 championships in a row.

I love this quote. i agree, i think that people get motivation from disappointment
ReplyDeleteI agree !!! I love the saying!!! that is what a real successful person is. someone who knows that they wont have all the success in the world and is willing to admit that they are wrong or have failed.
