You Will Get Knocked Down

Hi everyone,

How many times have you failed today? I can think of many already. It's not a matter of when or why...you will get knocked down over and over. The true test is how quick will you get back up!

I can remember years back in the commercial fishing business when I made a mistake how upset I would get and it lasted a long time. As I became more experienced the mistakes became less.

How Did I Overcome

The first thing I did was look in the mirror and said to myself is it really worth going through all this. I would get back up and go at it again. I found no one else was interested in my struggles anyway, so I would get angry with myself for a few hours, get back up and work even harder again.

I started noticing when something went wrong I would be upset for a few minutes and it was over...that's how I dealt with failure over the years.

Now when I lose all my content I shake my head and start over again lol. I find updating helps tremendous.

Hope this helps

Never give up
