What comes next?
Ivy Griffin
Life is so full of ups and downs. Progress is not a simple straightforward thing. Sometimes we take wonderful leaps forward. And sometimes we stumble back. The most important thing is not whether or not we stumble but what we choose to do after. Do we become disheartened? Do we give up? Do we throw in the towel?
Or do we choose to take a deep breath, relax our body and steel our resolve? Do we recommit to still trying to take a step forward, no matter how small, towards our goals? Do we get back up after we fall? This, this is the thing that makes the biggest difference – what do we do after we have a misstep?
If you need a second that’s okay. But you are so worth it. So keep fighting for you – even if it’s just one baby step at a time, you will eventually get to where you want to go.
