DO NOT DISPAIR

If you fail to keep your resolves, then make fresh resolves. Just as a child falls many times when it tries to walk without the help of a wall, just as a new cyclist falls from the cycle a number of times before he learns to sit steadily on the seat, so also a new aspirant will fail a number of times in his resolves. He has to make repeated attempts before eventually coming out successful.
