Nelson Mandela had two failed marriages. He was called aterrorist. He smoked. He had his low points. He had his flaws. He had his failures. But when he died, the world held its breath. We celebrated him in an extraordinary way.
Making it in life is like a game of football. You do not have to keep a clean sheet in order to get three points. Failure in career, social, political or religious life may come unannounced. At the end of the day the world will judge you based on your overall performance. Your life must not halt if your marriage, relationship or career fails. If you allow that to hold you back, it will eventually become your reference point.
So move on. Any form of failure or dent in character hurts. But that should not define your fate. All the great men and women we celebrate did not score a clean sheet. Their positives outshone their negatives. So shake off the negative thoughts. Move on with the lessons you learn when you fall, and give the world the kind of story to talk about when it's your turn to bow out the stage of life. God bless you.
