You Can Bounce and Not Break
It’s such a simple thought, isn’t it? It almost doesn’t need to be written on, and yet we need to remember this great concept.
Rejection teaches us
that we can bounce
and not break!
I love that idea.
I know this to be true. And you do too.
Everybody gets rejected.
Everybody loses out at some point.
Everybody gets defeated sometimes.
Ever been divorced?
Ever been in bankruptcy?
Ever had open-heart surgery?
Ever had an amputation?
Ever lost in love?
Ever had a foreclosure or a repossession?
Here’s the thing.
All the bad stuff I mentioned above, and there is a lot more that could be added to this list, all of that stuff is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it could, perhaps, be the beginning for a different take on life or on any of those circumstances listed.
WE CAN BOUNCE AND NOT BREAK!!!
We should take out an ad in every newspaper in the world, yes – the world, and proclaim this from every mountaintop.
This I’ve said in many blogs, and yet it needs saying again and again.
Failure Is Not Final!
~We walk away from failure, (or hardship or sickness or defeat.) ~We overcome failure, (or hardship or sickness or defeat.)
~We bounce back from failure, (or hardship or sickness or defeat.)
~We learn from failure, (or hardship or sickness or defeat.)
Failure is not the end. Oh no. It is a teacher. It is a hard lesson in life that we take to heart.
Yes, we must grieve our failures. We must take time to process, and reflect, and wonder and ponder and do all that other stuff a smart person does after a failure.
And then we move on. WE MOVE ON!
Is your mindset that of an overcomer? Do you want to bounce, or do you want to break into thousands of tiny pieces?
I say – Let’s Bounce.
Rebuild.
Reinvent yourself, your dream, your one thing that is always on your mind.
Do you remember what Muhammad Ali once said?
You lose if you stay down.
