This #MotivationMonday may not seem like the best motivation at first glance, but we promise there’s more than meets the eye.

Before we explain, check out the video below:

This is cruel. Just cruel.

A video posted by PGA TOUR (@pgatour) on

How is that video motivating? While that put was not very motivating for the player in the moment, there’s some value in it for us: Failure happens to everyone, even the pros!

For this golfer, he experienced failure but he didn’t give up. Like the rest of the golfers, he went on to finish all of the holes.

When failure happens to us, we cannot give up. We must continue to move forward with greater effort and energy than before. So, the next time you fail, remember that failure happens and it happens to the best of us. Get back up and keep fighting.
