A little over a month ago, I was forced to realize the impact of a mistake I made. While certainly I've made many mistakes in the past this was one of the few where I it came out of nowhere. I was in disbelief. A rush of emotions really came over me as much as I was hoping it wasn't the truth, it was. It literally took me a month to accept it and I to decide how to deal with it. I felt like I'd yet again fallen down.

So I decided to get up. Instead of doing as I may have done in the past ( or in the business world find some rational reason to avoid it) I just decided to get up, face it and deal with any and all circumstances surrounding it. Getting up isn't as hard as we think it is, it just takes the determination to do it. It takes effort, especially if you can get to the mindset to never make the mistake again.

It's January 2011 and I'm getting up. The biggest mistake I think I've ever made because I was headed in a direction that I truly thought was the right way to go, and got derailed. But I'm still getting up!
