Never Carry This

Some of the best advice I've heard in a while is this phrase from Denis Waitley.

He says this …

“Never carry a failure into the present tense.”

Here is the thing.  Perhaps you failed at something.  You ARE NOT a failure.

See the logic here?

What you may have failed to do is far different from who you are as a person.  Grasp that concept and you are well on your way to health and accurate thought.

I've dropped a few drumsticks in the past.  I am still a pretty good drummer.  Just ask my wife.

I've sung a few flat notes.  I can still sell a song from the heart.

I've had a few typos in my blogs.  I am a successful writer.

“Never carry a failure into the present tense.”
