There is a saying that a little spark can burn a whole forest down. I cannot agree more. It's similar to what happens in our lives.
Why are there so many people feeling upset each day? Often it is due to some small things.
If we have a small failure, it is bound to undermine our confidence. But if we dwell on the sadness, we won't be able to improve and try again. It will keep us looking back, wasting our time. Success will be even harder to reach. And if we never succeed, we become more unhappy - it is a vicious cycle. In the end, we will be totally defeated.
We should remember what's done is done. If you find yourself lagging behind, work harder. Don't let failure stand in the way of success.
