I won't give up, no I won't give in 'Til I reach the end and then I'll start again No, I won't leave, I wanna try everything I wanna try even though I could fail I won't give up, no I won't give in 'Til I reach the end and then I'll start again No, I won't leave, I wanna try everything I wanna try even though I could fail
Shakira
That last line is the toughest. Failing at something but not seeing it as a reflection on us a person. Good people fail, all people fail. And as another line in this song says "Nobody learns without getting it wrong." And I LOVE LEARNING so I have to learn to LOVE FAILING!
This fear has kept me from trusting in myself quite often. How about you?
