You can always start from scratch one time, because every time you start after that, you're not starting over. You're starting with the skills and the knowledge and the connections and the resources and the grit you developed before. Even if you think, I lost everything, I lost all the money, maybe the people you worked with don't like you anymore, maybe your name was damaged. It doesn't matter. You still have assets. You still gain something from that. If you were to go to God, you were to say, God, make me wiser. God would make you fail, so you could learn wisdom from it. If you would say, God, make me tougher, make me more resilient, then God would throw things at you that hurt, that make you more resilient, that allow you to suffer through. If you say, God, make me smarter, then He'll give you work. He'll give you work that's going to turn into knowledge. God doesn't give anything. He doesn't just download it to your brain. This isn't the matrix where it's something you know how to fly a helicopter. Everything you do takes the work, and the work works on you more than you work on the work. So you cannot start from scratch again, because you always have more. You're always further ahead. You're always wiser. We have this idea of, I'm just a day older, and just a day more tired, and a day more run down. That is a load of crap. You are a day smarter. You're a day wiser. You're a day more connected. You're a day knowing more things that don't work that you shouldn't try again. Now, you could let that damage your mindset. You could let that hold you back. You could let that make you become negative, and fearful, and cautious, and yes, then you would be falling behind. But that's up to you. How you approach life is up to you. Your mindset is up to you. Whether you choose to believe you're starting from scratch is up to you. But by any objective standard, you are absolutely not starting from scratch. from scratch. I spent decades failing at most things I tried to do and those failures were why I'm successful now. Because I learned. I built. I didn't think I was building. I thought I was failing. Turns out I was learning. I was growing. I was accumulating all the bricks. Every wall that fell down was just more bricks to go in my van that could build the foundation of something much bigger and much stronger and much more powerful. You can only start from scratch one time because after that you're not starting from scratch anymore. As long as you're still living you haven't lost at all and you are still moving forward. It's simply a choice. A choice to believe that you are moving forward and you still have something to do. So get on it. Let's see that greatness.
