Episode 11 – If At First You Don’t Succeed, Cry, Cry Again – Lullaby: Try, Try Again

Why do we believe we should have success with our first attempt at something new?  Are you failure-averse?

Original Lullaby by The Blankie (Carrie)

If at first you don’t succeed, cry cry again

If at first it doesn’t work, modify your plan

Setbacks are usual, challenges perpetual

It’s bound to take a while if it’s original

Failure’s not fatal—except with parachutes

You’re not alone, y’know—we’ve (all) done it, too.

Don’t stay in your comfort zone, uniqueness isn’t here

We count on you to give your best, for you to persevere.

If you haven’t ever failed, you’ve never really tried

Haven’t used your special gifts, from God they were supplied

Speed through the obstacles, fail faster, if you can

You were never ordinary. . . try, try again.
