Proverbs 24:16-18 New King James Version (NKJV)
For a righteous man may fall seven times And rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity.
Life is full of challenges. We will all face challenges regardless of our location, age, or status.
Challenges can arise at any point in our lives, often coming unannounced.
The best thing you can do is to prepare yourself for life’s challenges before they arrive.
The greatest people in life are those who face challenges and overcome them.
If you want to become great in life, you must be willing to face challenges and overcome them. People who avoid challenges or depend on others to help them always have limitations in life.
The period when you are facing challenges can be very difficult because it often comes with other issues, such as people judging or even mocking you.
Your focus should be on how to overcome your challenges, regardless of what people are saying. When you overcome your challenges, people will come to celebrate you.
It is painful when you try and fail, but the solution is to keep trying.
When trying again, you might need to restrategize or make some adjustments to achieve success.
Let no one deceive you—everyone has failed at some point in life. The difference between successful people and those who are not is how they handle failure.
If you want to be successful, you should learn from your failures, see them as stepping stones, and let them motivate you toward greater success.
My final advice is that when you fall, you should:
- Pray to God and ask Him to handle it.
- Analyze the situation.
- Learn from other successful people.
- Determine if change or adjustment is needed.
- Try again, as your chances of success will be higher.
Success is not about luck. To an extent, success is predictable based on the effort you have put into achieving it.
