What The Media Never Said About Oprah's Stage Fall
Yes, OPRAH WINFREY actually did fall on stage while on her 2020 vision tour which is still ongoing.
It was a Saturday, February 29th precisely while on stage at THE FORUM in LOS ANGELES talking about WELLNESS and BALANCE all of a sudden the 66 years old business mogul and world inspiring TV show host teetered on her heels and came right down to the ground.
Embarrassing right?
Well what I actually consider embarrassing is the fact that she fell right after sharing her personal definition of WELLNESS.
Oprah said ;
"Here's my definition of what WELLNESS means to me... Wellness to me means all things
in BALANCE. And balance doesn't mean all things are equal or at peace at all times."
And just immediately after that she tripped and fell. A stage assistant rushed to help her up, with the audience giving a supportive applause, well guess what Oprah said next?
"wrong shoes." 😀
Another interesting thing she did that makes me almost want to hug her was taking off the shoes and walking shamelessly about barefooted continuing her talk without missing a word like nothing new happened.
No, that wasn't all.
Now, the part that got my love for her spiraling to a 100% was when I read that, immediately Oprah spotted her long time Partner STEDMAN GRAHAM running to the stage to help her , she confidently joked...
"Look at my man coming to help me."
OK, by now if you hadn't heard about this story you definitely know about it now, in fact my detailed narration should make you feel like you were right there in THE FORUM when it happened.
Here is what the media didn't cover from this story.
1: Life Happens To The Best Of Us
Oprah is a household name in the world of TV hosts, and is not just limited to TV hosts, but to people of all fields , men inclusive. Oprah is an expert when it comes to staging, she has hosted over a hundred shows her whole life, she has mastered the art of staging but then what happened? what the whatever made her fall.
Listen, you must come to the place of realization that most events are unprecedented. Life is not being unfair when it happens to you. Life doesn't segregate. Life doesn't care how rich or famous you are. Life happens to the rich, poor, big, small, tall, short, old, young, novice, expert, life happens to everybody.
So when next something embarrassing, hurting, disappointing and painful happens to you, remember that even Oprah Winfrey fell on stage.
Life will always happen to you, but you shouldn't let it get to you. You shouldn't take it personally.
2: Oprah probably taught more lessons from her fall than from her talk that day, only if people will be careful enough to pay attention to her reaction, than they are pay attention to the fact that she fell.
First she joked about having the "wrong shoes" on, and then she also joked about her super hero coming to her rescue.
what an admirable sense of humor she's got.
Lesson: The best reaction to a bad day is laughter.
When you laugh it off you give your mind the freedom to proceed like nothing ever happened. Holding on to bad occurrences and punching on the rewind key in your brain will do you no good, except you are rewinding for correction sake.
When you laugh off a bad day, you are simply proving to life that you are more stronger that it thought. Your laughter will radiate confidence, and confidence is so unavoidably attractive.
When next you watch the video of Oprah's fall remember to create a new dance step.when ever life causes you to trip.
