“One standing tree fell in its effort to create beauty. All other
trees cried in laughter at his misfortune and at what they believed was
his drudgery. However, despite the surrounding doubt, he now stands in the
midst of paradise wiser and stronger than all his fellow trees.“
Look at all your failed attempts to create brilliance as
opportunities to begin anew, but each time with even more wisdom than
the last. Every failure breeds the seed of success, so don’t be afraid
to fail, unless you are afraid to succeed.
Summon the strength in your own inner
roots and fight the odds.
You can do it.
You will do it.
