It's not how you fail; it's how you get back up

Real success comes from having the courage to get up and the integrity to keep your faith and moral compass intact, even when everything inside you is at its breaking point. How you rise after a failure is more important than the failure itself. Life will be full of ups and downs. What defines you are those moments when you rise up in spite of the fear, the shame, and the pain. These are the moments that shape you. Rising after every failure is a sign of strength—the courage that will allow you to get up again and again, pushing against the limits you have. This is what defines you. This is what makes you strong. This is what gives you the power to conquer everything life throws at you. It's not how you fail; it's not those moments when everyone's eyes are judging you or shaming you, but those moments when you rise up against all odds, despite everything that comes your way. You rose up and fought, and you have conquered. It's those times when you get up and show the world that no matter what comes your way, you will rise above it, that you will fight until the very end of your ability, and still fight and rise, not letting anything put you down. This is the courage you need, not just to succeed in this life, but to be the person others can depend on. The Bible speaks of those who know how to wait on the Lord as being like eagles: We shall rise up, our wings like eagles. We shall run and not grow weary; we shall walk and not faint. This is what we need. When life comes hard at you, you rise above it. It's not how you fail, but how you get up. Are you going through tough times at the moment?
