Every successful person you look up to has experienced failure at one point in their lives. But you know how they were able to overcome it? They accepted that the

road to success isn't easy and instead treat their failure as a learning experience. So what if you made that one bad decision? Your life is not over. The road

to success is a marathon, not a sprint. You'll get there eventually.

Trust me, you're not the only person who feels this way. Any person who says that they've never wanted to give up on the thing they're trying to achieve is

lying. Everyone goes through a funk. And the fact that you haven't given up yet and and still striving to go on is a victory in itself.

Putting yourself down because your see your friends are overachieving with their curated Instagram content and Facebook milestones? The thing is, that's what they want you to see. Behind the seemingly

perfect lives on social media, you don't really know what they're going through. They might look good on the surface, but it might surprise you to know that they too,

don't have everything figured out.

It may sound cliche, but nothing rings truer. Life is hard and there's no way anyone can just glide through it. Friends come and go. Jobs are lost. Breakups occur. It's

all a part of life. It can get frustrating when these things happen to you, but always remind yourself that everything that is worth anything is always worth working hard

for. And you know what? The fact that you've failed will make success feel so much sweeter.
