THE LAW OF WASTED EFFORTS.

I stumbled on this post on LinkedIn and I thought to share.

Happy reading.

Do you know that Lions only succeed in a quarter of their hunting attempts—which means they fail in 75% of their terms and succeed only in 25% of them?

Despite the small percentage shared by most Predators, they don't despair in their pursuit and hunting attempts. 

The main reason for this is not because of hunger as some might think, but it is the understanding of the "Law of Wasted Efforts" that has been instinctively built into animals, a law in which nature is governed.

Half of the eggs of fish are eaten— half of the baby bears die before puberty— most of the world's rains fall in oceans— and most of the seeds of trees are eaten by birds. Scientists have found that animals, trees and other forces of nature are more receptive to the law of "wasted efforts.

Only humans think that the lack of success in a few attempts is a failure—but the truth is that we only fail when we stop trying.

Success is not to have a life free of pitfalls and falls—but success is to walk over our mistakes and go beyond every stage where our efforts were wasted, looking forward to the next stage. 

If there is a word that summarises this world, it will simply be: Continue all over again. Never stop at any stage of difficulty. Keep moving. Keep thinking. Keep trying and above all—keep praying!
