The Success In Failing Forward

In business we have lots of decisions to make all day long and it’s typical for us to go through a pattern and get lost in just making the subconscious choice many days. There’s isn’t a person in the world that can always act logical or make all the right choices always. Failure maybe discouraging at times but the worst thing isn’t failing, or your dreams crashing down in some way, in fact, there are much worse things that could happen. When things go wrong, you have the opportunity to learn, and pick back up to try again, but when emotionally you're burnt out and feel like you cant succeed you constantly fail.

Courage isn’t the absence of fear, it's the ability to not let fear paralyze you.

A few years back I was given the opportunity to make a big jump and either go all in on myself or stay stagnant in my position. All the fears I had of losing everything lingered in the back of my mind but the greatest fear I had was to stay stagnant and never move forward into my greatness. It went against my rule that you should never rely on things needing to workout to be okay, but the calling to go forward at this time begged my soul to take this opportunity. Fast forward about 6 months and my worst fears came to fruition. I was in a bad spot externally. On the outside things were falling apart, but internally even though the failure hurt deeply, I was not defeated. I pushed, I climbed, and I crawled out of that hole until the light showered down on my battle wounds and showed me what I had really just gone through, to find success, when all things around look dismal. My greatest fear in life was never motivated by external progression because I knew deep down I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I never tried.

The richest place in the world is the graveyard for it holds all the misplaced goals that never came to reality, don't let your greatest wins in life die with you. Let them out, explore your passions, and always remember it’s better to be loved or hated for who you truly are than who you’re not.
