Failure is a man made law. It is never real until it has been accepted by the person as permanent.
Nature does not take away a human beings freedom of thought. Blocking out the noise and opinions
while keeping a clear mind with a definitive goal is a natural law available to everyone. If a person
jumped out of a tree and was killed by the sudden impact of his body with the earth, thru the law of
gravity, you wouldn’t say nature murdered him, would you? You would say the person neglected to relate
himself properly to the law of gravity. Stating it another way, failure is a state of mind; therefore, it is
something that an individual can control until he or she neglects to exercise it. If you study the
lives of all people who achieve outstanding success in any calling, with profit, that their success is usually in exact ratio to their experiences of defeat before succeeding. The state of mind by having a definitive goal that never wavers is available to all by simply making the decision to do so. The country just elected a convicted felon to be the President. Politics aside and regardless if you love or hate him, the tenacity and determination to achieve an end goal is admirable. Historically, having a felony on your record would make you a second class citizen, looked upon as less than and be a roadblock for any kind of success. That perception is changing.
Even if it was not, that does not change the fact that everyone has a God given right to exercise the freedom of thought. Failure is a man made law.
Like many I have had successes and failures throughout my life and it would have been easier many
times to just give up rather than learn and grow. Being here has been and will continue to be after l leave a life altering experience with the positives outweighing the negatives. I have been exposed to the human condition and a system of things that I was ignorant of. I was granted a time to reset for which I’m grateful. My state of mind is clear and my only anxiety, if you can call it that, is how to prioritize all the opportunities that are waiting when I leave here in 100 days. I can tell you, with confidence, the end result will be nothing less than stellar.
