Is It Time To Quit? How do you know the difference between poor result multiple times or that it’s simple time to quit? I’d have to ask, how important is the goal to you. Edison tried over 1,000 times and failed before he succeeded. He also said, “Failure doesn’t mean you are a failure, it means you have not succeeded yet.” How many times have you tried? Have you tried everything? Have you exhausted everything and everyone you can think of? Or are you making the mistake author Rita Mae Brown once comment about, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results.” What small adjustment could you make that you haven’t made? Are you knocking in the morning? Knock at night. Is it blue? Try green. Are they
We should learn from this quote that no matter how hard things may seem, we must not give up, we must try and keep trying until we succeed. Thomas Edison never gave up and because of that he created so many different
Sir Winston Churchill, a British politician from 1800’s says “Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.” Throughout my few years of living, I have learned that everybody is going to fail at something at least once. It is up to you to take all of your failures and turn them into success. It’s not going to only take one day but everyone is destined to be successful.
We have all failed several times, and sometimes we have given up. One of the most famous chocolate makers in history failed many times, but he never gave up on his dream.
“I did not fail , I just found out 1000 ways it won’t work” Thomas Edison
Here is the stuff you do not hear in goal setting seminars. There will be times when you think you have failed. These time of doubt come into every persons life. Unless you quit you have not failed. Mistakes and setbacks happen but they are not
Success becomes in different forms, to be able to overcome obstacles that get in your way, just don’t give in, and stop, continue and ask question of what can I do to become the best that I want to be. It is a goal and also inspiration to say the word I have succeed. No one can conquer your dream but you and yourself.” The never ending words of Martin Luther King I have a dream”(Sehgal 2016) and this dream can come true for
At some point in the many journeys we embark on in our lives, we get to a part where we feel like giving up. Sometimes we give up just before we are about to make that huge breakthrough that we have been putting so much
Even if you do fail, thinking positively can help motivate you to keep succeeding and not doubts
With vivid images of failure in my mind, I pushed myself harder than ever before with one goal in mind: to be the best that I could be. Driven not by a fear of failure, but of not being able to make the most out of my life, I was able to achieve both first rate grades and personal pride in my work. Without my resolution to succeed, I would never have stepped outside my comfort zone and gained both the knowledge and experience that accompanies.
The goal was to get nine mile and twenty seconds in the final test. On paper, it would look like I failed this goal, but personally I feel like I succeed in accomplishing the goal. On the final run, I got nine miles and twenty-three minutes. That is three second more than my goal. My goal was a failure, but personally I thought it was a success because I brought my time to significant amount of time and help create a layout to continue to improve my time.
As we all know Thomas Edison was a famous inventor in the late 1800’s. His inventions were the building blocks of what we use now in today’s technology; such as our phones with which we can communicate and the electric lights that we use to see in the darkness. And as we all can see he was pretty successful with his inventions, but being an inventor gives you more chances to make mistakes. His famous quote, “ I have not failed, I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work,” gives me a feeling of hope that says that even though I’ve fallen, I can still get back up. Every time I am in a tight spot, I think of this quote and it gives me hope to push
Many times in life there are goals that we want to achieve, but an obstacle occurs and stops the opportunity to achieve the goal. A goal that has occurred in my life is winning the first place championship in NHRA Junior Drag Racing. I was unable to receive the championship due to having late reaction times, and the other competitors being able to beat me. When I had realized that I was unable to receive the championship I was disappointed, discouraged, and determined. I know that if I want the championship next year I will have to put in an effort and concentrate during the time of the race. I haven't overcome the obstacle, but I have overcome the emotions I had. I have continued to stay concentrated and keep practicing my reaction times.
It is often assumed that failure is a deterrent to achievement. Rather, failure should be seen as a motivator for a person to keep trying until the objective or aim of a particular mission is fulfilled.
III. Main Point#3 - Finally, after about a few days or a week take a look at your progress and determine if that method really worked for you or if you need to alter things.
Succeeding in one’s goal is something that we all try to do but many find ourselves living
