Pick Yourself Up - By Diana Krall

The song - Pick Yourself Up - has been sung by various singers. The most recent version is by Diana Krall. I like her version, it is very jazzy and bluish sounding. The song has been sung by Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra. Diana Krall has picked up from here and makes more contemporary sounding. Well, definitely suits my taste and my favorite inspirational music.

Anyone is likely to fail and fall. We all have those moments - when a project we've been working on for months does not work out. Suddenly everything seems to fall apart. When you think you could just cry. This song is so inspirational and forthright. You just have to “dust yourself off, and start all over again."

Pick Yourself Up
By Diana Krall
From the album "WHEN I LOOK IN YOUR EYES"

Nothing's impossible I have found
For when my chin is on the ground
I pick myself up, dust myself off, start all over again

Don't lose your confidence if you slip
Be grateful for a pleasant trip
And pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over again

Work like a soul inspired till the battle of the day is won
You may be sick and tired but you'll be a man my son
Don't you remember the famous men who had to fall to rise again?
They picked themselves up, dust themselves off and started all over again

Difficulty attracts the man of character because it is in embracing it that he realizes himself.

Charles de Gaulle

When you make a mistake or get ridiculed or rejected, look at mistake as learning experiences, and ridicule as ignorance. . . . Look at rejection as part of one performance, not as a turndown of the performer.
