“Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul.”

• Douglas Macarthur

Difficulties are put in our path for us to overcome.

Life happens for us, not to us.

We are meant to overcome obstacles, not be crushed by them.

Giving up and surrendering is detrimental to spiritual growth. 

When we abandon a dream of ours, we let our spirits down.

We feel defeated. We begin to lose hope. We begin to think we’re a failure and not someone who failed. 

This distinction makes all the difference.

Failure happens. If you’re trying to do great things, you will fail often.

Do let it make you think that you’re a failure. 

Champions fail on their way to success. 

Champions are allergic to the state of failure.
