"Succes consist of getting up just one more time than you fall"

Oliver Goldsmith

I found this quote while I was searching for the author of another one, and it caught my eye. I read it and I was impressed by how much I actully understood the true meaning behind it. Yea, you can read it and just say you fail, so get back up and try again, but to me it goes deeper than that. To me it is saying if you fail, no matter how many times keep getting up and trying, and keep on trying until you get it right. It only takes one time to succeed you just have to fail until you do. There are many times where I have failed and just gave up on the first few tries, but I realize now how stupid I was not to keep going until i succeeded! Every time I fail now, I will keep trying and trying to achieve whatever it is I want to do. And if I forget and just give up I will read this quote again until I am ready to keep on trying. And I encourage everyone who reads this post to try and fully understand it as I do. Next time when you just cant get something right on the first few tries, to not give up. It may only take one more time to "fall" or a few more times. Trust me though, you will definately be proud of yourself when you do succeed, and you will cherish what you have done a million times more than if you would have just given up at the first bump in the road!
