The truth about Failure

Blueberries from the Queen's Garden

The truth about Failure

1. Failure is not a person it is an event
a. Do not personify failure
b. Your character is not connected to the occurrence of failure

2. Failure is helpful
a. It helps us recognize our weaknesses
b. It helps us enhance our true talent

Do not Avoid failure, change your prospective, Examine your failure.
– Did you prepare?
– Did you have some coaching?
The path of success is through failure
Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently
Failure is a choice, that you do not have to make.
Failure does not define you.

Learn the art of patience. Apply discipline to your thoughts when they become anxious over the outcome of a goal. Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, decisiveness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success. Brian Adams

Burn the ships, so that you cannot return to failure. We are a dominant tribe.
1. The path to success runs through failure
2. Don’t camp at the green-field of failure.

Are you more afraid of failure or success?
We succeed.

Poem: A Drop of Patience


A drop of Patience
• Add one to your enthusiasm
• Add one to your frustration
• Add one to your ambition
• Add one into your love for others

That drop of patience will,
• Give you proper direction
• Allow peace to reign supreme
• Open your understanding
• Multiply your ability to care

St. Matthew 9 v 35-38
The harvest truly is plenteous but the laborers are few pray ye therefore the Lord of harvest, that He will send forth Laborers into the harvest.

Operate in your gift

In Genesis 2v8 the Bible it states “And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it”. This is how you should live your life. You are given a gift that will make your life simple. There is very little hard work if you operate in the particular realm where God placed you. You will have to put forth effort but it will not seem laborious to you. With many ways to start a business venture the most feasible and effective direction for that business is an avenue that operates in your natural gift. Find the thing you enjoy and have a high aptitude towards and develop that talent. Proverbs 18v16 states “A man’s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.” Only think on the talents and business ventures that will propel you forward while operating in your gift.

What is an example of you operating in your gift?
