Follow me… ready. Hope you are good at math. There are 17 birds on a fence. 3 decide to fly away… how many are there left on the fence?

Easy? Try this one… there are 17 birds on the fence, 9 decide to fly away… how many are there left on the fence?

 

 

Story of a famous novelist who was visiting a rather large college campus to speak to students. When he entered the auditorium he walked to the podium reached into his pocket and grabbed his notes. There was in attendance more than 300 students. He cleared his thought and then stopped for a second and said “before I begin, how many of you want to be writers?”. With that every hand in the room went up. Oh, he said (folding the paper back up into his pocket) then the best advice I can give you is go home and write… and to that he walked out. 

 

the secret to those who are truly successful is that they learn to fail… their secret is they fail in order to learn how to succeed… but here is the real secret- they know the more they fail the less it hurts and it in turn propels their success into greater and greater areas and new heights! 

 

The key in todays world is not “how can I succeed”, but rather should be how can I fail today? What if you chose to fail 3 times in every area of your life you care about. Trying to in turn to learn through that failure. 

 

Write out one goal for your 

physical life

Your mental life

Your job

Your spiritual life

Your family

I don’t care what for, but at least for a couple areas of your life and then start to fail! 

 

Look When Jesus sent the disciples into the region to preach the gospel he said “go”. He gave them a few instructions and then sent them out to win some, lose some and learn along the way.

When he floated up into the clouds he said Go into all the world and preach the gospel, making disciples, he said you would do greater things than he did…

DO YOU THINK HE KNEW WE WOULD MAKE MISTAKES? 

BUT HE SAID GO ANYWAY!
