Time and time again we feel the harshness of failing---even, or especially, when we bravely make another attempt to do something.
Most of the time we don't think about failure as an enemy, but it is. We simply have to plan a strategy that will carry us past that place where we once failed and help us to overcome all the things that dog our tracks--even ourselves. There are two necessary parts to this new strategy: first, strive to do better every day; and second, don't look back.
"I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back. So let’s keep focused on that goal, those of us who want everything God has for us. If any of you have something else in mind, something less than total commitment, God will clear your blurred vision—you’ll see it yet!" (Phil 3:14-15 MSG)

"When you plow, don’t lose your track. Can’t plow straight and keep a-lookin’ back. Keep your hand on that plow, hold on." -- "Hold On" (Negro spiritual)
