Failure

I won’t fail. 

You see, the thing about the task in hand - 

As is true for any task - 

Our perception of its complexity 

Is the only complexity that exists at all 

Our perception of our abiliy 

 Is the only quantifier 

Of the ability that we possess… 

No man ever was more capable 

Than he thought he was… 

Talent is useless -

 It’s like the paraglider on the edge of the cliff - 

Stationary, earthbound, uninspired… 

Nobody ever went anywhere 

On potential energy! 

There is no talent.

 There is no merit.

 There is only accomplishment, and acquisition.

 So what are you waiting for? 

Release your inhibitions 

And jump. 

“Not good enough” “Not strong enough” 

Only exist In your mind. 

I won’t fail. 

I will never fail. 

’Cause the opposite of failure isn’t accomplishment… 

No… 

The opposite of failure 

Is Faith.

Is there a typo on the sixth line? 'abiliy'---> 'ability' maybe?

Aside from that this was epic on a new scale: There was some valid wisdom to be gained and inspiration to be instilled with your words. I always love your delivery and tone...it sets a great foundation for the message.

This part was so great:
"Stationary, earthbound, uninspired…
Nobody ever went anywhere
On potential energy!
There is no talent.
There is no merit.
There is only accomplishment, and acquisition. "

There's a saying i think i'd like to quote here: 'Hard work beats Talent when Talent doesn't work hard'

Wonderful piece!!
