Break or build
A writing from several years back:
We will all stumble and fall, not all of us will get back up again. We will all go through trials and tribulations, even if we feel like we are the only ones. The only difference is that some of us will take those circumstances and turn them into victories while others will use them as excuses to never try again.
No matter how hard you fall, or how far, you can arise and overcome. You can turn your weakness into strength. How you overcome your losses is what separates and defines us, not the wins. Anyone can have heart and show determination when things are going their way. How many people can pick themselves up off of the ground and keep going when everything is telling them to just give up? This is as true in life as it is in the ring.
No matter the setbacks, no matter how many times you fail or how far you fall, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and continue on your journey. I know how hard it can be, it seems so much easier to just give up, but that question will haunt you till the day you die, What if?
So push through the hard times, as long as you continue to keep moving and never give up you will never fail and you will never lose.
Follow your heart, find your dreams, never quit, never stop fighting, no matter how long it takes or how painful it is.
Face your fears, live your dreams.
