Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
~~ Winston Churchill ~~ (1874 - 1965)
It’s true; life is a sum total of successes and failures. After one or two or even some successes, the life does not stop; it keeps on going. Same applies to failures. The only difference is that it’s a bit easier to carry on after success than it is after a failure.
Failures act as valuable lessons and experience for those who have the courage not to give up and continue their pursuit. They analyze the causes of the failure so as not to repeat the same mistakes again. Success and failure go hand in hand; almost every successful person fails a few times and some fail several times before they finally succeed. So one must always keep the courage to keep on going forward and expect that successes and failures will be encountered along the way.
Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.
~~ Winston Churchill ~~ (1874-1965)
This is true and almost all successful people say the same thing in one form or another. We all have great potential but most of us fail to reach our potential as we give up as soon as we encounter some difficulties or problems in our pursuit. But those who persist and continue to make consistent efforts go on to reach new horizons and realize their full potential.
So the key is to keep ourselves motivated and consistently make efforts to achieve our goals.
If you’re going through hell, keep going.
~~ Winston Churchill ~~ (1874-1965)
This quote is funny but quite sensible and motivational. If you are or you think you are going through hell then it makes sense to keep going. Because if you stop then you are destined to stay in hell but if you keep going you might get out of it.
On a more higher level, this quote is really to motivate us not to stop making efforts to improve our situation, no matter how hopeless the situation might seem. As a matter of fact, if you don’t give up and keep making efforts to improve the situation, you can be almost certain that the situation will improve.
