Freemasonry : - "It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get back up."

"It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get back up." Vince Lombardi

What does this mean?


Watch a baby learning to walk. When she first goes from crawling to walking, she's down more than she's up.


There may be a few tears, but she quickly bounces back up, ready to try again. The urge to walk, to explore the world in a new way, keeps her going.


Wouldn't it be great if we could maintain this same kind of spirit? A baby doesn't think, "Gee, I fell.


Now, I'll never learn to walk." As adults, we sometimes let our failures discourage us. If something goes wrong one time, we think it will always go wrong. We don't gt up to take the next step.


I know I'll fail once in a while, but I can learn from my failures. When I try something new that I fear I'll fail at, I'll remind myself that I've succeeded in the past by persisting.
