It is human to fall
But angelic to rise.

How To Make Great Decisions…
In all things God works for our good…. (Romans 8:28)
Usually our biggest mistake - is being afraid of making a mistake!
In The Psychology of Achievement, Brian Tracy tells of 4 multimillionaires who made their fortunes by age 35. All 4 tried an average of 17 different things before they found what made them successful.
Imagine failing 16 times before you discover what works! Could you handle that?
We're too quick to judge things as failures when they're just learning experiences. Edison said, "Many of life's failures were just people who didn't know how close they were to success when they gave up."
Only by allowing yourself to fail, do you give yourself permission to succeed.
So, what should you do?
(1) Consider all your options!
Then discuss them with the right people. Find those knowledgeable in your field who are willing to support you. And never hesitate to discuss your plans because you're afraid they might not work.
Swallow your pride! If you grew up in a culture where failure always brought condemnation, you must change your thinking before you can move forward.
(2) Lighten up!
Nowadays everything's a big deal! Chill out and stop taking yourself so seriously!
J.I. Packer says, "A moment of conscious triumph makes one feel that after this, nothing really matters; a moment of seeming disaster makes one feel like this is the end of everything.
But neither feeling is realistic; because neither event is really what it's 'felt' to be."
Don't get bent out of shape; by God's grace you'll handle it.
Remember: "In all things God works for our good (Romans 8:28)"... so step out boldly!
PRAISE GOD
BLESSED BE THE ONE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD
