True Failure comes from Never Trying...

I was thinking this little thought in my head today...

Some folks feel that they fail at many things in life... Business, Dreams, Goals and Vision.. but really even though something didn't work out the way they planned it they really succeeded because they Tried.

Only those who NEVER Try really Fail...
The other opinion is based in Perception...

Just a Thought...

...and a good thought at that!

Nothing ventured - nothing gained!

Dude, I was just thinking about this the other night. My baby asked me one time what it meant when daddy prays, "Lord bless us with opportunity..."

I don't want a handout from the Lord when it comes to blessings, they mean so much more when I have an opportunity to work and be in the vein of his will for my life and my business.
I love the doors he opens, it means I don't have to always carry around a crowbar.

Good thought, Randy.

I heard a very thought provoking story about this very thing on our local christian radio station a couple of weeks ago. It's really been resonating in my mind the last few days.

Sometimes we let others perceptions of what we do affect our future...

You are exactly right. And they're just that - perceptions. We've got to get past that and walk in the direction that God has planned for us to walk to do the things that He has planned for us to do!
