Bear Grylls Quote
But just as I was about to burst into tears, my dad would then start to applaud me.Applaud the fall?But why?Dad wanted me to understand that I could only become a horseman if I had fallen off a horse a few times - that we only become good at something when we do it enough.Life is much the same.It’s a vital lesson for almost any path we choose to take in life: whatever you want to do, the chances are that if it is worth doing it will be difficult. We all fall off a few horses. And getting thrown to the ground by the unexpected is a big part of learning how to ride.It is how to get good at something - don’t be afraid to make mistakes.So see the inevitable setbacks and mishaps as vital parts of the learning process.
