Defeat can be use to archive victory if you not give up
We can use defeat to archive victory, this can be archivew with enthusiasm, friendly encouragement within you and positive mindset.
Some people lose their courage in facing life because of their past failure or because of the fear that they may fail again in the future: If we wish to cure such fears in us we must remind ourselves of the story of many great men who built a lifetime of great accomplishment out of defeats. One paradox that comes to us as human from the life of great men is that we can use defeat to archive victory.
Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United State of America was one man who used defeat to archive victory and to build a lifetime of accomplishments. We are told that he lost his job in 1832; was defeated for the legislative in 1834; failed in business in 1833; and was elected to legislature in 1834; lost his wife through death in 1835; had nervous break-down in 1836; was defeated for Speaker of the United State of House of Representative in 1838; was defeated for nomination to the U.S. Congress in 1843; elected to Congress in 1846; lost re-nomination in 1848, rejected for land officer in 1849; defeated for the U.S. Senate in 1854; defeated for nomination as Vice-President of the United State of American in 1856; again defeated for Senate in 1858. But in 1860 he was elected for the post of President of the United State America.
Lincoln was able to push on in the face of difficulties, failures, and discouragement, because he believed that God had given a mission to fulfil. When he became President he expressed his faith in God thus: ‘God selects his own instruments, and sometimes the queer ones. For instance, he chose me to steer the ship through a great crisis. ’ that is an expression of a great man who combined faith in God, good spirits, relentless and courage to accomplished his goals and dreams.
Courage must be demonstrate when we are face failures in life. The type of courage that we need is one that will help us to face; difficulties of life, failures and unpleasant experiences of life so that we can endure and could say “there is hope for me, I can do it, it is not yet over”!
In Conclusion:
We need a type of courage that will make us to survive a private guilt or a public disgrace. At the midst of troubles, and challenges of life, courage will help us overcome; fear, defeat and our failures. Never give up in life, only a loser will quit when the game is still on, continue thriving towards your goals till you reach the climax.
