67. Don’t Stay Down

Turning failure upward is an ongoing process. There’s so much to learn and so many wounds to recover from. However, sooner or later, you’re going to have to release all the regret and wrongdoing by others and yourself and get back up. Yes, it’s reasonable to have hurts and disappointments, but your destiny isn’t worth staying down. I'll be the first to admit, I’ve contemplated staying down many times in my own journey. Yet, it was at those moments that I had a choice: Would I stay down or would I get back up? I’ve hit rock bottom a few times in my life, but the good news is my rock bottom was always a new foundation for me to build upon. Although it felt like I would never recover, staying down was not an option for me. The same is true for you. I pray this episode will encourage you to get back up and be the better for it. Don't. Stay. Down.
