“The sad truth is it doesn’t matter how many times you succeed, it’s always the times you fail; that’s what you’ll be judged on.”

This is something I really wish were not the case, but unfortunately I see it way too often in every form. It doesn’t matter whether it’s professionally, in the media, in personal relationships. It’s really a sad truth.

We’re all human, we all make mistakes, no one is perfect. Experience teaches us lessons and we never learn greater lessons without having to overcome adversity or simply by making a mistake.

There isn’t a way to select which challenges get thrown at us. The only thing we can do is determine how we react to them.

It may be difficult to get past some judgments, but I’m going to remain optimisitc and keep my ambition to succeed.
