The Nasty F-Word

We hear that word and instantly, our head goes down, our gaze shifts to the floor and some people even shudder.  It is so repulsive in our society that disgrace is felt by all who experience it.  No, it's not that word.  I am talking about Failure. Failure is a powerful motivator. So powerful, in fact, that shame is cast upon those who try and fail.  Oftentimes, the thought of that shame inhibits people from trying in the first place.   
Do you know how many times the Wright Brothers failed at flight before they mastered it?  What about the number of times that Bill Gates failed at creating Microsoft in his garage before he was successful? Have you stopped and given thought to the number of failed attempts that a competitor endures before they win the gold?
For all those people who have failed and tried again, "I commend you!"  For the true success of your accomplishment comes in the fact that you never gave up, not in the glory of the outcome.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

"Only through the strength of a divine heart will you command such power." tc
