Forge ahead

You’ll have setbacks. Many of them will be your own doing, and others will not.

Whatever the case, your best response is the same. Get back on track.

Recognizing you’ve fallen short is the seed of an opportunity to do better. Extract learning and determination from your experience and apply it to moving forward in a positive way.

The time that’s been lost is never coming back. Yet you can make use of the time ahead to not only come back, but to forge ahead.

Take effective action, and the setback begins to recede into history. Continue with persistence, and seize the opportunity to make your situation better than ever.

From time to time, for one reason or another, you’ll stumble. Whenever that happens, let it inspire you to quickly get going again.
