It's never going to be easy. A warrior's commitment is not just to win one battle--it is a series of battles that will be fought in many different battlefields. There will be battles that require less attention than necessary, and there will be those that require everything that is necessary for victory. There will be those battles that will confront us when we are most unprepared--but the warrior's task is to embrace it with courage and dignity no matter the cost.
And battles will cost something. It's always been that way. Defeats will cost hope, confidence, strength, and testimony. Defeats will intimidate us, shake us, and slow us down. But it will also give important lessons, valuable experiences, and big opportunities for growth. To a warrior, defeats are meant to strengthen his resolve and enrich his spirit. Defeats of different scope and magnitude will always push a warrior to seek for truth and clarity, they will lead him to innovate, recreate all for the sake of redemption. Defeats make him a better warrior.
Defeats are never the end. They are the beginning of something you can do again this time better. Fight!
