Kick Butt Tip: George Clooney – There Is Only One Failure
Actor George Clooney says “there is only one failure.”
Clooney says “the only failure is not to try.”
From time to time, I will hear the old Southern saying, “my get up and go has gotten up and is now gone.”
With jobs, family, church, bills, lack of restful sleep, etc., life can be stressful.
So, with all of the stress points in our lives, how do you stay motivated?
May I encourage to remember George Clooney’s words, “the only failure is not to try?” So the next time that you find yourself contemplating quitting or trying one more time, I hope you will choose the latter.
Also there is one more thing to consider. If you were to decide to not try one more time, think of the guilt that you might have to deal with. For me, that little voice inside would be reminding me that I quit instead of doing what I should have done.
Do This When You Feel Like Quitting

Let me share another Southern saying with you. Quitters don’t win and winners don’t quit. Do what winners do and get it done whatever it may be. Resist that negative urge to throw in the towel. Take action and try one more time. You will be glad you did.
In closing, let me share a brief story about one of the most successful comedians who later became a television star. Did you know that Jerry Seinfeld froze on stage during his first attempt at stand up comedy? It happened. At that point, Jerry had a choice to make. Do I quit comedy or do I try one more time?
Go get ’em tiger! God don’t make no junk. You, yes you are awesome! Now go be awesome!
