The Yin and Yang of Sports

"You have to want it bad enough to suffer the losses, to suffer the obstacles, to suffer the inevitable heartache when you put yourself out there and fall short."

- Kerri Walsh Jennings

To find success we need to be willing to fail.

Why?

🤔

To experience success and failure allows us to gain a personal understanding of what each means.

🎯

If we only do things that allow us to succeed or things that allow us to avoid failure, we aren’t gaining an appreciation and respect for either outcome.

💪

If we don’t feel the heartache of failing when we put it all on the line, we won’t know what motivates us to get back up and keep going till we succeed.

💡

It’s in those moments that we truly come to appreciate our successes and be humbled by our failures.
