“Plans fail, actions fail, but you are not a failure.”

When we set out to achieve there is always an inherent risk, that we may not accomplish what we set out to do. We should not use our failed plan or actions to define ourselves. The most defining moment is in our response to undesirable outcomes. When faced with an adverse situation, get your chest up, chin up, and proceed despite nervousness. If your outcome is less than desirable, take a step back, assess the recent attempt, adjust your approach. – Jason Windley
