I thought Thomas Jefferson said this, but then someone told me I was wrong. It doesn't really matter who said it, but I have this quote I keep in my office, and in my head at all times:
"Sucess is going from failure to failure with enthusiasm"
It's what we learn from what goes wrong that helps shore us up, helps make us a better person. You may view what is happening to you as failure, but it really isn't failure. That's how I view this quote. We're getting there, and as hard and as painful as it is, it takes time and patience.
best,
antigua
