Fall seven times, stand up eight

NO. IT'S PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE. YOU HAVE TO FALL DOWN EIGHT TIMES BEFORE YOU CAN STAND UP EIGHT TIMES. 

Unless I've counted wrong. Or you sat down after you got tired of falling. Or you're counting the initial standing up after you've sat down and then you proceeded to fall down seven times. In which case, carry on. 

I'm sorry if I've offended you by dissing your motivational mantra.
