00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.080
You put yourself out there, you took the risk,

2
00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:04.780
stepped outside of your comfort zone

3
00:00:04.780 --> 00:00:06.160
and gave it your best shot.

4
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:08.660
And it didn't go the way you hoped.

5
00:00:08.660 --> 00:00:09.900
Maybe it flopped.

6
00:00:09.900 --> 00:00:11.140
Maybe it was messy.

7
00:00:11.140 --> 00:00:13.020
Maybe it just quietly fell apart.

8
00:00:13.020 --> 00:00:15.860
And now you're left wondering if it was even worth it.

9
00:00:15.860 --> 00:00:18.220
Listen, that wasn't failure.

10
00:00:18.220 --> 00:00:19.800
That was courage in action.

11
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:22.800
That was boldness most people only talk about.

12
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:24.300
It's easy to look at the outcome

13
00:00:24.300 --> 00:00:26.580
and feel like all your effort was wasted.

14
00:00:26.580 --> 00:00:29.200
But growth doesn't just live in the win.

15
00:00:29.200 --> 00:00:31.480
It lives in the risk, in the showing up,

16
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:33.680
in the refusal to stay small.

17
00:00:33.680 --> 00:00:36.460
Every time you step into the unknown, you learn.

18
00:00:36.460 --> 00:00:38.600
Every time you try, you stretch.

19
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:40.480
Every time you give something your all,

20
00:00:40.480 --> 00:00:42.360
even if it doesn't work,

21
00:00:42.360 --> 00:00:45.480
you build resilience, wisdom, and grit.

22
00:00:45.480 --> 00:00:48.900
Trying and failing is not the opposite of success.

23
00:00:48.900 --> 00:00:51.520
It's the training ground for success.

24
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:54.280
So don't let one result define the story.

25
00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:56.280
You are not the outcome.

26
00:00:56.280 --> 00:01:00.320
You are your courage and you are your persistence.

27
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:03.500
You are your willingness to rise again.

28
00:01:03.500 --> 00:01:05.920
So dust off, learn what you can,

29
00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:07.920
and then when you're ready, try again.

30
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:11.100
Not because you have to, but because you can.

31
00:01:11.100 --> 00:01:13.600
Bravery like yours doesn't go to waste.

32
00:01:13.600 --> 00:01:15.740
It builds a life worth living.
