“Fall seven times. Stand up Eight”
“Fall seven times. Stand up Eight”
– Japanese Proverb
It’s been said that it’s not how many times you’ve been knocked down that’s important, but rather how many times you are willing to get back up. Never lose hope that this might be your time to get it right. Millions of people have been knocked down by addiction, completed treatment, and then relapsed. These people serve as guides for you to know that recovery is possible despite missteps and mistakes along the way.
Today, find room for the notion that your past can serve as a lesson on what not to do. Move forward boldly, and with courage that you got up once again to overcome. You are possible.
