How fast will you get up?

  
The fact that you’re going to fall at some point in your life is practically guaranteed. It seems to be something that mankind specializes in. Slipping up at work, in a relationship, your spiritual life, your finances, in decisions, business, friendships, opinions, your own expectations… the rocks along the way are by no means in shortage.
But slipping or tripping is not the main problem. The biggest mistake many make is to fall and stay down rolling around in their self-pity. Feeling sorry for oneself, ready to blame anything and anyone for the fall, pity-parties and the victim spirit.
Many of those who fell are still down though they could already be on their feet getting ahead, if they only stopped looking back.
The question is:
How fast will you get up?
After you fall down the only useful thing to do is to get back up and move forward, the difference being that this time you know how to avoid falling again.
Without a doubt, avoiding the fall is the best option. But if it happened, get up. Quickly. Look forward.
And don’t fall anymore.
