rising again after falling—which means that real success is to keep moving forward. The one who stands still will, of course, avoid falling. But those who walk have only one story in this world: they fall again and again, and rise again and again. When a person falls and then gets up to walk again, it shows that falling has become a source of new courage for them. By falling, they gather new strength for themselves. Instead of sitting still, keep walking, and after falling, get up and stand again. This is the secret to success in this world. You cannot create a new world for yourself, and therefore, you cannot avoid falling—for the Creator of this world has designed it that way. DELAY, NOT FAILURE Defeat is merely a delay, not failure — it is just a temporary phase for someone; it doesn’t define their final outcome. In such cases, there’s no reason to be discouraged by defeat. The journey of life is never easy. Ups and downs are unavoidable. Sometimes, a person experiences a loss or setback for various reasons. But in life, every loss or setback is only temporary. Don’t get discouraged by such events. Keep pushing forward. If it doesn’t happen today, you will definitely succeed tomorrow.
