The simplest way ahead is to sulk about it a bit and then get back to what can take you forward.Rocky Balboa (2006) is the sixth installment in the Rocky franchise that began with the Academy Award-winning Rocky thirty years earlier in 1976, written, directed by, and starring Sylvester Stallone who reprises his role as the title character. But how long are we going to survive on that? We need to find a way to get out of that phase before we start detesting the attention and detesting ourselves. If it is important enough, we have to face feedback and find a way to move ahead.įor it is way too easy to feel sorry for oneself and it is kinda nice to get that sympathy from people around us. Such is the power of our goal and resolve. It is because we feel so strongly about the goal we are after. We say this not because we think we are great. I will figure out what went wrong and set things right.
The doggedness within us says – Screw it, I want this to happen. We don’t care about the reasons as to why something did not happen. It is not about how hard you hit, but what you keep doing to move forward. The crux of this quote says – to persevere – don’t stop. If you still feel passionate about the goal – change your approach. Ultimately, if you want the results, you just have to accept what has come your way. Read failure stories, you will get some ideas to get success” Abdul Kalam ( Source) That’s how winning is done!Īfter a while even realise that the reasons for failure don’t matter. “Don’t read success stories, you will only get a message. Feeling bad is natural, but being obsessed about it is madness! This is the reason I love Abdul Kalam’s quote Ask objectively – what can I do differently. The trick is in separating yourself from failure. Failures hurt our ego and make us feel low. Maybe that’s true – but the attitude toward success is most important. Success stories often say – Einstein did not fail a thousand times. Maybe that is why we appreciate them so much. Even if you look at all the things that you’re proud of, they have come with great effort. But the reality is harsher than this simplification. The fault in these quotes is that they make it sound easy. The effort itself can be rewarding to push us in the right direction. But there’s a grain of truth in all of them. There are books which talk about perseverance in a glorified manner and call it the secret of success. Don’t worry about the results, keep working hard you will get there. Too many times we’re led to believe in a romantic world. Don’t worry about the results – Persevere! And no wonder we love this quote for the exact same reasons – the kick in the right place. Such is the effect of a powerful quote – It can kick us into action to do something.
It is Not about How Hard You Hit, But It is about How many times You Can get Hit and Keep Moving Forward – Rocky Balboa In the long game, failure is necessary to take you to your ultimate success. If you take the attitude of continuous improvement – failure will only be a temporary outcome. It is only sending a message that something is wrong. Perhaps the most beautiful theme in this quote is to respect failure and move on.įailure cannot be anything more than feedback. Its most powerful effect was to pump me with adrenaline and energy to do something. The song from Rocky would buzz on my earphones.
It was one of my favourite ones growing up. I consider it an honour to be writing about this quote. If we decide to stay with perseverance and hard work – the rewards will be long-term. It is about the journey and decisions we take through the process. “Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.” ― john wooden. This reminds me of a wonderful quote by John Wooden It is more about your mindset than isolated events of success or failure.
