I get knocked down...BUT...

My entire inspiration for today’s episode came from a jiu jitsu tournament that we went to a few weeks ago with Blaise.  He got knocked down...quite a bit.  Now, I’ve never been physically knocked down…fighting isn’t really my jam, and I’m guessing you probably haven’t been physically knocked down, but I bet you have been knocked down in some other way. Mentally. Emotionally. You didn’t get the job. You failed the test. You had to drop out of an event. You got hurt. You blew the presentation. Someone hurt your feelings. We’ve all been knocked down. Life throws some really tough punches. The question is. Will you stay down? Or, will you get back up? I can tell you this, if you can just learn to get back up, over and over and over, nothing will be able to take you out because nothing will be able to keep you down long enough to quit. Life is going to knock you down. Not once, not twice, but a lot of times. The more times you get back up, the better you will get at it. Soon, you’ll hop right back up because that’s just what you’ve done. I don’t know where you are. I don’t know how far you’ve fallen. But, you have to understand that you’ve never fallen too far. You can always get back up. Process your situation. Let it go. Own your fall. Make the choice to get back up. Change what you need to change. Adjust your attitude along the way. Enjoy!
