Another reason we fail to reach our goals is inability to stand against resistance. Or: a willingness to quit. Proverbs tells us that a just man falls seven times and rises up again. You're going fail. Success and victory do not have tendencies to land gently in your lap. No, you've got to learn to get back up when you fall and press on. Winners never quit and quitters never win. Don't quit! When you run into an obstacle, find a way around it. Or over it. Or under it. Or THROUGH it. Just keep on trying, and you will eventually succeed.
