Last week I woke up with the following statement in my head.
“Failed and Failed even more. It is the only way to success. Keep on going!!”
I went ahead and posted it on Facebook and later on that night one of my friends who’s an amazing artist made a very cute drawing for me, reflecting the quote.
That phrase became real, together in that interaction failure stopped being an issue. We talked about failure without fear, we were brave girls putting all our stories in a hopeful ladder to success.
I was happy to show my heart, she showed her’s and we made something amazing! Later on, I decided to share the picture as well, suddenly so many people were being touched and encouraged by this image.
No need to hide, I thought. People need to know that it is well, we are doing this walk together and we are not alone.
Powerful people own their stories and they have valiant moments where they conquer fears and they celebrate the victory as a family. Powerful people do not hide in perfection, they show their wounds and they heal. Powerful people understand their struggle and ask for help. Powerful people are never alone, they show their hearts and speak life to themselves first and then to others.
I have failed and failed even more. It is the only way to success. Keep on going!
