There is no shame in having fallen. Nor any shame in being born into a lowly estate. There is only shame in not struggling to rise. And also shame for not wishing to attain the better. Or not dreaming about it and praying for it.

Samuel Amalu

There really is no shame in having fallen or failure. You created some results. But if you don’t get up again and take action again, though not necessarily the same way, then there is cause for shame.

It doesn’t matter where you are now. What matters is that you work to improve yourself in all the ways you can, though maybe just working on one or two at a time. And don’t just wish for or dream about or pray for a better life. Work for it.

All those are important as they keep your mind focused on what you want. You are focused on what you want and not on what you don’t want, aren’t you?

As you use these ways to keep your mind focused, you must still take action to move toward what you want. Don’t like your “lowly estate”? What can you do to improve it? Do you need a different job? Or do you need to go to school to get the credentials to help you move forward?

Failure and lowly estate are things you can take action on to move forward. So focus on what you want and then get to work to get it. Are you listening, self?
