Have you ever wanted to just give up? This fight is just too much and why am I still doing this? It’s just too much effort and it shouldn’t be this hard? Do you still get up and give it one more shot anyways?
We all get knocked down many times in our lives with different set-backs. Set-backs are not failure. I don’t like the word failing unless I have totally given up. Set-backs are just what they sound. In football set-backs are like getting hit behind the line of scrimmage by another person that loses you a yard or so. Basically, losing momentum for a short period of time.
As long as we keep getting back up and trying one more time we are not failing. I have had many set-backs in my life, whether they be relationships, business, financial, health, etc. One thing that I can pride myself on is that I got back up and gave it just one more shot.
Yes, we should not just keep running into a brick wall in hopes it will break down finally by some miracle. There are times when we have to walk away, but those come after we have set our limit of how much we are willing to try. I have even given one more try even after that limit as well. I guess I am just stubborn.
I like to make sure that I have exhausted every opportunity before I walk away from something. Yes, it may have given me more pain, but in most instances, it has been that “one more try” that has elevated me past the issue and I have moved forward.
Too much of our culture is set up that if there is any kind of resistance then we should try something else, or move away. We have a Failure Culture in this world that says if something is hard, then we should move to something easier so that we can have that sought after “good life.”
I have met many successful individuals and one thing that they all have in common is that they have gotten back up with that “one more try “mentality. They face challenges, get knocked down, and get back up. Some may take a little longer than others, but they still get back up.
We must keep grinding especially if it is that dream that we have had since we were younger. Our mission that we set out on, the path we were born for. We need to keep getting back up and driving forward. Just one more step, one more pushup, one more phone call, will get us closer to the that goal.
Having that “one more try” mentality will allow up to build up our resilience muscle so we are stronger. We need this if we are going to grow any kind of life change, business, or movement. So get back up and give it one more try because you can do it!
Have a great week!
