Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn. C. S. Lewis The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits. Albert Einstein In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure. Bill Cosby Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things. Winston Churchill Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity. George S. Patton Nobody can hurt me without my permission. Mahatma Gandhi I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death. Leonardo da Vinci What good is an education if those who possess such a thing are unwilling to put it into action. Sure mistakes are undoubtedly going to be made but that is the experience of life. Failure is a necessity throughout certain stages of life. There are many firsts in your life: love, marriage (perhaps), jobs, children etc. If we learned everything there was to learn on the first try what fun would life be? Who cares if you fall or fail even more than once or a dozen times? It is only through ignorant succession that one truly does themselves a disservice. I have failed at countless things in my life so far but when it really matters I tend to not fail at things that really matter more than twice. I figure everyone can mess anything up once, twice you usually do it a little better and hopefully the third time while possibly not perfect will be a lasting effort. That being said if your going to fail at something fail greatly but more importantly come back even stronger and more prepared to capitalize on the renewed belief in yourself after such a terrific blunder!!! Especially if you know it within yourself that you are capable of so much more..... WHICH YOU ARE!!!!!
