Get Back Up!
We’ve heard it & no doubt have said it as well…Get Back Up! The image is an easy one to see – someone on the ground getting back up.
That’s what it’s always been about…getting back up. It’s so instinctive that we teach it to our kids when they are just learning to walk. Every time they fall, we say it, “get back up.” At times we also add the words, “try again.”
Getting up is not the entire equation. Trying again after falling is the equation. It’s not enough to get up. You can get up and determine to never let that happen again…never going to fail again…never going to fall…never going to go there – ever again. If our kids did that, they’d never learn to walk. It’s the “trying again” that makes it work.
For any, & every, one of you that have had some fall in life or any aspect of it – get back up & try again. You can’t just stay down. You can’t let the past or the fall win. You just can’t. You have to get up. You have to give it another try. You have to. Don’t let the fall be the final answer…or have the final say.
I have had to overcome a major fall…we have had to overcome my fall…And, we did. No matter the story, no matter the fall, you can do the same.
Get Back Up & Try Again.
I could tell you to watch Al Pacino’s Infamous Locker Room Talk (warning graphic language)
I could tell you to read some scripture like this one
Or, I could simply hope that you read this post & that you get back up & try again.
Never ever quit…ever.
Get Back Up & Try AGAIN
