Success Lies on The Other Side of Failure

Success is there for the taking, but its treasure is often guarded by
rugged terrain riddled by the pitfalls of failure and adversity. Though
it’s path seems intimidating, the way is opened to those that are
determined enough  to persevere after others have turned back.   It is what
we do after we fail, lose, and get knocked down that counts.  If we want to
achieve more than the average person achieves, then we must persist longer
than the average person is willing to persist.   Where others are not
wiling to go is where we will find the greatest treasures of all.

” Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the
bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to
win when the match is even.”
