I posted this twice in 2012, and today, Michelle Marie commented on my post that sometimes it seems all uphill and it reminded me of this, so I had to repost this again.

……………………

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill.
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns.
And many a fellow turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man.
Often the struggler has given…

If you have been really wanting to do something, but are afraid of failure, how would you react if you knew you wouldn’t fail? If you knew that taking that step would be the best thing you ever did? Would you ask that person to dinner if you knew they would say yes? Would you go parachuting if you knew for certain you would survive? Would you tell someone you loved them if you knew it was reciprocated?

How do you know it won’t? Don’t be afraid of failure, look for the success. Don’t hide behind the “what if …” look at the “it will …“

What would you do if you knew you could not fail?
What would you do if you knew you may not fail?
