Get up when you fall

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but 

in rising every time we fall. 

When i was younger, I used to ski and i always prided myself on not falling, To me it was successful day, if i didn't wipe out . That's just common sense right? Yes and No. I wasn't taking  any chances or risks. I wasn't hurting myself, but i also wasn't improving my skills. I think it's like that in life You can't live you life encased in a bubble.You need to take chances, and risks , an step out on that proverbial limb. Sometimes you're going to be successful, and sometimes you're not. The thing is your success is not or should not be measured on of you fail. It should be measured by how you react to that failure. Do you give up and never try again. or do you much like the phoenix, rise up fro the ashes, stronger and ready to try again.

Heck, you may not rise up stronger - that's okay, what matters is that you keep rising. keep getting up and keep trying, over and over again. That is the way to live your life.
