Afraid to Fail?

     I think the big thing is don't be afraid to fail.  I think in our society today, Instagram, Twitter, it's a highlight reel. It's all the good things. And then when you look at it, when you think like, Wow, when you have a rough day, 'My life's not as good as that,' you think you're failing.  Failure is a part of life.  It's a part of building character and growing. Without failure, who would you be?  I wouldn't be up here if I hadn't fallen thousands of times and made mistakes.

     We all are human; we all have weaknesses, and I think throughout this, it's been important to be able to share that and be transparent.  I know when I listen to people speak and they share their weaknesses, I'm listening because it resonates.

     So I'm not perfect.  I'm not Superman.  I might be in the NFL;  I might have just won a Super Bowl, but, hey, we still have daily struggles, I still have daily struggles. And that's where my faith comes in; that's where my family comes in.

     I think when you look at a struggle in your life, just know that's just an opportunity for your character to grow. And that's just been the message. Simple. If something's going on in your life and you're struggling?  Embrace it, because you're growing.
