Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars

“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.” – Brian Littrell

Though this quote is short and simple it has a lot of deep meaning into it. Basically this quote means no matter how bad your situation is, you still find good points in it. Life is full of surprises and without putting effort you never know if you’ll succeed or not.

Over the past few months I’ve asked myself this question over and over again. Am I a person who strives for the best although I know the worst is coming or the kind of person who doesn’t even try? But now I know that I am the kind of person who puts effort into little things, therefore this quote corresponds my personality. Even if things don’t turn out good for me, I’d always tell myself “I’ll improve! I’ll do better next time!“ Even if I fail a test or a quiz that had been a great deal to me I would just learn from my mistakes and hope next time I would do a better job. Personally I think failing is essential in life. Although they can stand as an obstacle in the middle of a new task, that is part of life. Obstacles cannot be avoided, and from my point of view a person who undergoes the obstacle is better likely to succeed in life rather than a person who runs away. Life is always going to be unfair and challenging but the only way to overcome that fear is to go for it.
