Dr. Colson believes that successes and failures have helped to develop a resilience that keeps me striving to this very day. I have learned that success comes through failure. As we reach for our goals we will have some obstacles, but these obstacles were meant to be overcome. One of my favorite quotes is from Nelson Mandela: “Do not judge me by my successes, judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again”. My faith in God has sustained me through life’s journey. Each time I experienced a setback, my faith would pick me up and allow me to keep working toward my goal. By staying grounded, I am still able to keep balance in my increasingly busy schedule.
