I woke up this morning with the irrational notion that I should try again at the exact same thing I tried yesterday and failed at. For some reason, I have this ingrained belief that the next time I try something will be the one that turns out to be successful. Give it a shot today, tomorrow, and the day after that in the hopes of seeing some success, since consistency truly does pay. From what I've heard from the most successful people, it's evident that consistency is one of the most important factors in their success.
It's discouraging when I put in a lot of effort but see no results; when that happens, I'm left with the paralyzing fear of not knowing what to do next. But the fact that I'm so close yet so far away from success serves as a driving force for me; I know that I'm almost there, that I'll get it right, that it'll click someday, and that if I keep trying, we'll eventually succeed. The old adage says something like, "Winners never stop, losers never win."
It's true that practice makes perfect, so if we keep trying and trying again, it won't be long before we reach our goals. The good news is that as time passes, we gain wisdom. There are things we've learned from failure that we couldn't learn from success.
When all else fails, and there seems to be no way forward, holding on to the belief that our dreams are still possible can be the only thing that keeps us going. So let's keep the hope alive, let's hope keep us on motion, let's hope serve as a propeller to our dream. The belief, the hope, that it will definitely work soon is what allows us to go home today and get up tomorrow and the next in the pursuit of a better day.
Since it is impossible for a human to foresee what the future holds, the most we can do is to follow some guiding principles and allow those principles to shape our behavior into good habits that, if maintained over time, will lead to excellent outcomes. Principles may be cultivated into daily routines, and doing so enhances the likelihood that we will achieve our goals; unlike ad hoc efforts, this maintains the dream in mind, as the very act of pursuing them serves as a reminder that we have a dream to pursue.
It's a matter of chance, but not waiting for it; the day it finally works out will be a lucky day, but we keep trying, day after day, and at this point it's a company, and there's no such thing as a poor day for making money. Eventually, the young businessman becomes a business mogul, having studied the business by piling knowledge on top of knowledge, blending the lessons he learned from his losses with the ones he learned from his successes to form his experience. So naturally, he is now held in high regard.
Don't give up if at first you don't succeed; there's good to be had in both victory and defeat, so whether you win or lose, you'll come out ahead in the long run if you just keep trying. I am confident that anyone who refuses to give up and keeps working toward their goals with an optimistic frame of mind will eventually achieve their goals. We put our faith in God and ask that he bless us with the ability to accomplish everything we set our minds to. Don't give up; success is near.
