This life is all about goods and bads, ups and downs, happy experiences and the awful ones. Nevertheless, we are all victims of all that happens in this planet we are, we should learn lessons in all we face and get up from our mistakes with something tangible. These are some lesson I want to share with us today:
(1)NEVER FEAR FAILURES NO MATTER HOW BAD THINGS MAY BECOME; we humans are prone to make mistakes and fail, but only the weaks quit easily and they never make it. The strongest ones always stands up again and improvise and always do something new, Trust me they are the ones that made it. I always say "SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE ARE THOSE THAT ARE MAD OF FAILING"
(2)NEVER SETTLE; Although been successful is a thing but settling for the best is another thing entirely. The best can never be compared to the better, it's always the best that brakes limits and set another. "NEVER SETTLE FOR SOMEONE ELSE WANT OUT OF YOUR LIFE. IT'S YOUR LIFE AND YOU SHOULD DO WHAT YOU WANT WITH IT".
(3)WE ARE PART OF THE GREATEST EXISTENCE; Yes, we are. I won't say much here, just to let you know you have a great role to play in this existence and you should play such to your best capability. "TO WHOM MUCH IS GIVEN, MUCH IS EXPECTED".
(4)LIFE IS NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN PLAN; STEPHEN COLBERT's speech at Northwestern University in 2011, he said " life throws many curves balls to you at many time,there are too unpredictable things that happens. The most successful people are not those that plan ahead,but those that can roll with the curves and edges, those that overcome the punches and obstacles thrown by life to them. I want you to meditate on this.
(5) SUCCESS CAN BE DISTRACTING; When you are becoming successful, you may be swayed away from the act that made you the success, so I'll urge us to keep doing what made us successful and don't let other things get in the way.
