My word for you this morning is ' Don't be caught in this madness of quitting. Remember quitters don't win and winners don't quit. It is not the 101th stroke that felled the oak, it is the resultant of the 101 strokes that did. After the utter darkness comes the glorious dawn. Even though that sound like a commonplace, it is a truism that is indubitable. It doesn't matter the number of times you fall, what matters is that you not only rise each time you fall but also bring something from the ground. Show me a champion and I will show you somebody with a record of losses.
Never lose faith in yourself. You can do it. Albert Estein, Winston Churchill, Abe Lincoln, Barrack Obama were at one point or another written off. Yet these titans imprinted there footsteps in the sand of history. In encouraging the severely shattered British troops against overwhelmingly rampaging brigand German army, Winston said that no matter how fierce and hopeless the situation may be 'Never, never, never give up'. And that was what saved England from plundering.
No one in recorded history suffered defeats like Abraham Lincoln. Yet he remains the most celebrated, referred and revered American president.
Winston Churchill was called a dunce because he couldn't cope with his peers when in the elementary school. Yet he saved England from plundering Hitler. Albert Estein, the scientist of the twentieth century and father of nuclear weapon, was nicknamed a dullard because he couldn't solve simple arithmetic. Yet he propounded the law of relativism. Barrack Obama? Well you all know him. By all means these men started out an ordinary being like you and me, but because they didn't give up on themselves they subdued kingdoms and establishment, wrought wonders and liberated their people from poverty of mind. You too can do it.
So if today you cannot fly, run, if you cannot run walk, if you can not walk crawl but for goodness sake don't ever contemplate standing still. The war is never won until the last battle. The game is never over until the last whistle. Man Utd. claimed victory over Bayern Munich scoring the two goals within two minutes of stoppage time to win 2-1 of Champion League Final. Liverpool came from 3-0 down to win AC Milan in the final of Champion League. The battle is not over yet. In fact your situation is the end of the beginning not the beginning of the end. I see you making history by God grace. The top of the ladder is where you belong, there are too many people in the lower rungs.
Go and do exploits. At spes non fracta'.
