This blog is dedicated to all my dear comrades that may have recently messed up big time. Chin up and press on! May these quotes be a breath of fresh air.
“Your failures won't hurt you until you start blaming them on others.”
(Source Unknown)
“Never let the sense of failure corrupt your new action.”
Oswald Chambers
“My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.”
Abraham Lincoln 1809-1865, Sixteenth President of the USA
From time to time, life as a leader can look hopeless. To help you, consider a man who lived through this: Failed in business at age 31. Defeated for the legislature at 32. Again failed in business at 34. Sweetheart died at 35. Had a nervous breakdown at 36. Defeated in election at 38. Defeated for Congress at 43. Defeated for Congress at 46. Defeated for Congress at 48. Defeated for Senate at 55. Defeated for Vice President at 56. Defeated for Senate at 58. Elected President at age 60. This man was Abraham Lincoln
Proverbs 24:16 for though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again, but the wicked are brought down by calamity.
