Be Your Own Best Friend
“I am not bound to win, but I am bound to work at winning. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to get up, no matter how many times I fall.” (Abraham Lincoln)
He walked the walk.
Age 22 – He failed in business.
Age 23 – He ran for the Legislature and was defeated.
Age 24 – He failed in business - again.
Age 25 – He was finally elected to the Legislature.
But then…
Age 29 – He was defeated for Speaker of the House
Age 34 – He was defeated for Congress.
Age 39 – He lost another bid for Congress.
Age 46 - He was defeated for the Senate.
Age 47 – He was defeated for Vice President.
Age 49 – He was again defeated for the senate.
But then…
Age 51 – He was elected president of the United States.
