Man In The Arena

Vulnerability is not knowing victory or defeat, it's to show up and engage. It's to commit and being all in. It's to believe in your own worthiness and to know that I am enough!

Here is the passage of his speech that still resonates with all of us in 2020:

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, and comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

En hier is n Afrikaanse vertaalpoging:

"Dit is nie die kritikus wat tel nie; ook nie die man wat vinger wys wanneer die sterk man struikel nie, of reken hy kon beter gedoen het nie. Die erkenning en eer behoort aan die man wat eintlik in die arena is, wie se gesig geskend is deur stof en sweet en bloed, wat streef met moed en deursettingsvermoe, wat foute maak, en telkens weer kort kom, want daar is geen poging sonder foute en tekortkominge nie: maar wie streef om te doen wat hy moet doen; wat met groot entoesiasme en toewyding homself oorgee aan n waardige saak; wie op die ou end triomfeer, en wie op die ergste, as hy misluk, misluk met waagmoed, sodat sy plek nooit sal wees by daardie koue en versigtige siele wat geen oorwinning of nederlaag ken nie.”

Glo in jou menswaardigheid en weet jy is genoeg!
