If at first you dont succeed dust yourself off and TRY AGAIN

This is a quote that most of us has heard before or have seen something similar to in the past. It is a quote I strongly believe in and usually think about it a lot when: I recieve a bad test grade, have a poor performance during a soccer game, or anything that involves getting better at. Well this coming Friday we have a huge event at our school called MGN(My Generation Night). It is where many people throughtout the campus audition for a chance to perform one of there favorite songs on a big stage in front of the whole school. Well, Im a sophomore now in college, and last year I auditioned and did not get selected to perform in the show. I did not let rejection bring me down so I "TRIED AGAIN" this year. I auditioned along with 40+ plus acts and like last year I did not get selected. I acted like I didnt care that much, but I actually really did did because number one I tried again and failed and two I did so much better than last year. Well, a good friend of mine once told me "a pride becomes before a fall". It was also brought to my attention that "The Good Book" tells us that. That really stuck out to me just because I was so confident I would get the spot this year, and just knew rejection would not come my way twice for the same event. However, it did, but the good news is the judges saw and noticed that I worked really hard and recently asked me to be in the show but to rap/sing a song that they had previously selected. Of course I said yes. So, I encourage all of you not to get DISCOURAGED in anything you do, and dont be afriad to fail because we all fail, fail more than once. Dont give up with God's love you'll survive! TRY AGAIN! If you don't your not hurint anyone besides yourself.
