Swami Mukundananda
How can I train myself to bounce back after failing?
Good people are like gold that joins again
It is important to train ourselves to handle failure, because success is less common than failure. Kabir says the nature of good people and saints is like gold, which joins again after a hundred breaks, while a mud pot is shattered forever by one hit.
Break them a hundred times and they join again; but a mud pot shatters forever with one hit.
