We go through lots of challenges and adversities throughout every season of life.
It’s what we learn through the failures that make us a better leader.
Although we always want to have successes and celebrate them, we can’t overlook or forget the times we fall short.

When we discover the right path, that’s when we can teach our lessons to others so they can avoid the pitfall.
