A pen on a blank paper writes:
What do you do when life takes a U-turn on you, when all you've planned and worked hard for comes tumbling to the ground... When all your plans become fruitless??
When you are called a disappointment just because you failed...
When you are called a disappointment just because you failed...
When Life takes a U-turn on you, what do you do???
Do you feel dejected, rejected, you cry, you wail, you get angry.. you blame yourself thinking that you didn't try hard enough.. Or do you blame other people saying they gave you the wrong advice and that's why you didn't succeed??
Do you feel dejected, rejected, you cry, you wail, you get angry.. you blame yourself thinking that you didn't try hard enough.. Or do you blame other people saying they gave you the wrong advice and that's why you didn't succeed??
But do you know what?? there's a traffic sign that says U-TURN ... So when you are driving a car and you see the sign that says U-TURN, you already know that you can't go either way but you have to make that turn whether you like it or not... But also after making that U-turn, you know where you are going to.. YOUR DESTINATION!! So no matter what you will find another way to get to your destination...
That is how life is?? There will come a time in life that everything will not go according to how you plan it... THAT'S A U-TURN!!
When life makes a U-TURN on you, you don't keep on grieving about the past, you keep on sulking and beating yourself up... What's done is done,whats gone is gone and the best thing is to move on...
Failure and Downfall are not something to bring you down but rise you up... Sometimes maybe something needs to go wrong before it becomes right...
A U-turn is just A U-turn!!! It's not supposed to stop you from reaching your goal or being stagnant, its suppose to give you experience and make you think and reason faster than before...
You must take this advantage and not think of it as a disadvantage.. Don't see yourself as a disappointment but someone that can improve and do better... Don't relent, Albert Einstein didn't say he failed 99 times but instead he has learnt 99 ways not to make the same mistake again...
A mistake is only a mistake when you do the same thing twice not learning from the disappointment of the first time..
So when life has taken the U-turn on you, it's not supposed to bring you backward but move you forward..
You've learnt a lesson, you known the meaning of failure, YOU'VE SEEN LIFE U-TURN!!! NOW GET UP!!!
When you fall down, you rise up quickly before anyone can see that you fell down...
When life takes a U-turn on you, you flow with that you turn, but never forget where you're going to.. Make sure you find other ways to get there even if this U-turn has been made on your life... THERE'S ALWAYS A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL...
Find that light, even if you continue to go in darkness in that tunnel, even when things will be 10 times harder, continue to go on no matter the circumstances....
I don't know the U-turn that life has made on you but don't let it bring you down but rise you up.. Don't let it make you weak but make you strong...
YOU NEVER KNOW WHETHER LIFE U-TURN MIGHT ACTUALLY BE THE WAY TO MOVE FORWARD!!!!
