We can choose to learn from what didn't work out as we had imagined and re-engineer a new plan that may lead to success. If you quit short of the goal line all you get is dirt in the face, skinned knees, and defeat. If you choose to push on and try again you may just reach to goal line and you get success, glory, and something to be proud of. Choose to go for it. Choose to fail forward.
