F:Fightback

The road to success is never a smooth one. It is ought to be laced with hurdles and obstacles. Further, one has to meet failure many times before succeeding. Therefore the capacity to overcome these hurdles and failures is of utmost importance. This ability to fightback is the hallmark of a successful person.

These intermittent hurdles and failures tend to demoralize us. They really test our patience and endurance. It’s not easy to bounce back from failure. But then this is the only way to achieve the goal. It’s much simpler to quit. But that’s the difference: Winners never quit and quitters never win.

One has to understand the philosophy behind fightback. No one is going to fight the battle for you. In your war to succeed, you are the sole warrior. So even if you get hurt or wounded, you need to fight back. Or else the challenge will keep on attacking you and wounding you further.

Life is like the boxing arena. You don’t lose when you go down. You lose when you don’t get up. And it’s never about how hard you can hit. It’s all about how hard you can get hit and still keep moving forward.
