Don’t Be Afraid to Fail<br />
You’ve failed<br />
many times,<br />
although you may not<br />
remember.<br />
You fell down<br />
the first time<br />
you tried to walk.<br />
You almost drowned<br />
the first time<br />
you tried to<br />
swim, didn’t you?<br />
Did you hit the<br />
ball the first time<br />
you swung a bat?<br />
Heavy hitters,<br />
the ones who hit the<br />
most home runs,<br />
also strike<br />
out a lot.<br />
R.H. Macy<br />
failed seven<br />
times before his<br />
store in New York<br />
caught on.<br />
English novelist<br />
John Creasey got<br />
735 rejection slips<br />
before he published<br />
564 books.<br />
Babe Ruth struck out<br />
1,330 times,<br />
but he also hit<br />
714 home runs.<br />
Don’t worry about<br />
failure.<br />
Worry about the<br />
chances you miss<br />
when you don’t<br />
even try.<br />
