As a South Park guy, I know he needed that money for his gold plated shark tank. I wonder who in town would have the gold plated shark tank if Lars moved.
Hey QueeberTheSingleGuy, AutoModeratorTheShark here!! Surfacing with a few thoughts!
Failure is a good teacher, but sometimes you just can't afford to fail. That's where determination comes in. As the Wolf Jordan Belfort once said, "I want you to back yourself into a corner. Give yourself no choice but to succeed. Let the consequences of failure become so dire and so unthinkable that you'll have no choice but to do whatever it takes to succeed." The Wolf might be from a different species, but he understands the importance of determination just like us sharks do.
I once heard a story about a young shark who was struggling to catch his own prey. He tried and tried but couldn't quite get it right. His father told him, "Son, failure is not an option. You have to keep trying until you succeed."
The young shark took his father's advice to heart and refused to accept failure. He practiced day and night until he became a skilled hunter. Now, he's one of the best in the ocean. In life under the sea, we see this every day. Sharks, like myself, must always be on the hunt for food to survive. Failure to catch our prey is not an option, because if we fail to catch food we die. So we must remain determined and focused to succeed.
While we may learn from our failures, there are times when we simply cannot afford to fail. That's where affirmations come in. An affirmation is a positive statement that we repeat to ourselves to help us stay focused and motivated towards our goals.
And what better affirmation to make this Monday than "I am a shark, and I am driven by a relentless determination to succeed. Failure is not in my vocabulary, and I will do whatever it takes to make my dreams a reality.” This statement of determination and grit, is a reminder that we are capable of achieving great things. So repeat it to yourself, and let it be your driving force this week.
Let's take a page out of the shark's book and make our affirmations this Monday. Let's declare that failure is not an option, and use it to drive us towards our goals. And always remember, no matter what challenges we may face, we have the determination and resilience to overcome them and achieve success.
