Obscure Guideposts




Guideposts can sometimes come disguised a thousand different ways. 
A good friend
A mentor
A book

A word or phrase properly timed
A sermon or prayer
A mistake

Are you kidding me?  A mistake?

Consider this –
Mistakes aren’t really mistakes.
They are the guide posts you use to get better.

I don’t know who said that, but its great food for thought. 

So is this one:
The greatest mistake you can make in life
is to be continually afraid you won’t make one.
Elbert Hubbard 1856-1915


Another way to look at this issue is this – You’re not down until you stay down.

If you have made mistakes, even serious ones,
there is always another chance for you. 
What we call failure is not the
falling down but the staying down.
Mary Pickford 1893-1979

I hope you notice the guideposts along the way.  They are there to assist you.  Use them to find your way.
