Are you worried about a recent or past failure in your life?
Have you ever used quotes as mantras or affirmations to help you?
This is a quote that you can use by reading it repeatedly in order to get past something you believe you failed at. It will help you get unstuck from berating yourself, from not forgiving yourself for not knowing. Is the truth that you’re learning something new?
It’s never a failure if you can learn something from it.
A friend of mine shared this quote and I’ve read it repeatedly from then on. It’s really helped me to learn that defeat isn’t the end. “Defeat” is education. “Defeat” is part of learning something new about ourselves. “Defeat” is a piece of the learning process in going after the dreams of your heart.
If you’re ever down and out because you feel defeated, write down this quote and carry it with you or post it somewhere you’ll read it several times a day. Trust and believe in the words and you’ll shift yourself out feeling defeated and into the energies of strength, endurance and determination. Keep moving through the process so that you may transform the defeatist mindset. Empower yourself to define what failure is and what failure isn’t.
“I’M INSPIRED BY FAILURE. THE PROCESS OF DEFEAT — PICKING YOURSELF BACK UP AGAIN IS THE HARDEST THING IN THE WORLD.” – Lolo Jones
If you can pick yourself back up again from what you think is the hardest thing in the world to do, then that my dear courageous one, makes you a champion. I know you’ve done it before and you can do it again … and again …. and again. Please, acknowledge yourself for that. And if you can’t, let me. Yeah, you’re a champ. You got this.
