Check
out this quote from Theodore Roosevelt.
Notice he doesn’t necessarily honor the most successful person, rather,
he honors the person who has the courage to make an effort in the first place.
“It is not the critic
who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where
the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is
actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who
strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the
great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause,
who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails
while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid
souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”
I love that
quote! It speaks volumes to me and has
so many different meanings or uses in my life.
In essence, he’s saying quit standing on the sidelines and get your butt
in the game!!!!
My advice to
you when you get in the game is to give your best effort, really leave it on
the field and enjoy the good feeling you will get from knowing that you gave
your best effort!
I resolve to seek progress, not perfection and progress requires effort....will you join me?
Good Luck and Keep charging!
