Setbacks
No matter how carefully you study a subject,
no matter how rationally you make decisions, or how well prepared you are, you will occasionally make mistakes. Human beings always do.
The important thing is to realize that temporary setbacks are not permanent failures. Successful people recognize that we all experience temporary setbacks that require us to reevaluate our performance and take corrective action to achieve success. They know that adversity is never permanent.
You’re constantly looking for ways to keep on moving forward. We all spend too much money and screw up our budgets – we’re human! But we do our best to figure out what makes us tick, and we adjust accordingly. Even if it takes us a few times to get it to stick.
We’re going to continue to fail, but if you keep a good head on your shoulders you’ll never stay down for long. You gotta have the downs to appreciate the ups. And the older we get, the smarter we become.
