Try Again



The beauty about trying is that you will notice that with each attempt, there is something you do better than you did in  your last attempt, sometimes you get the first part right and mess up the ending, sometimes you stutter at the beginning; fix the error you made and move on to improve your previous ending.

With each attempt, you should aim to fix what you did wrong in the previous attempt while maintaining enough focus to perfect what was done alright, this can be very hard as we all know because sometimes it feels like we fixed problem A then create problem A+ in the process, this often creates a stationery state of mind, leading us to believe that we are going nowhere slowly but if we look at it from another angle, an angle of all champions,  we will begin to realise that we have now done what we previously perceived as difficult which means we have made great progress.

The thought of progress drives everyone to keep going on and even try harder, which is why we need to make sure that we adjust our attitude with each attempt because that is what will determine how we look at the outcome, because no matter how well we do something, it can still be done better which is why it is very important not to get complacent in any of your attempts.

The more we try, the easier it gets and the only way to perfect anything is to learn from your mistakes, correct them and be consistent in your attempts. Michael Jordan teaches us that life is a game of numbers and if we are passionate and genuine about our dream, and we have not achieved it yet, then we have not tried enough times.

MJ is still recognised as one of the greatest basketball players of all time because he never stopped trying, so in order for us to get the same if not greater recognition in our fields, we need to be prepared to do the work that comes with that kind of recognition.
