Why Failure is Good for You
Posted by admin
So what do you do next?
You go back and try and find out where you went wrong.
Then you try again but this time employing a different method.
When this doesn’t work you go back and look at everything you have done so far.
Talk to successful people who have made it in this area.
Think of what you might have left out and try again.
Whatever you do, don’t give up.
Why do you need to do this?
“Every failure, every adversity and every heartache, carries with it the seed of an equivalent or a greater benefit”, says author and mentor to many great men, Napoleon Hill.
Failure contains the seed of victory and of success. Failure teaches you what works and what don’t. When you study the reasons for your failure and learn from it, you’ll find the key to your success.
The great inventor Thomas Edison knew this truth better than anyone else. It took Edison 8000 trials before he perfected the Edison battery? Afterward, he uttered this famous quote: “At least we know 8000 things that don’t work”.
You should also be like that. Every successful person has had to overcome temporary defeat at one time or another. Know this! You haven’t really failed until you ACCEPT defeat.
Do you envy those who got success easily? Don’t! Success earned in spite of earlier failure is so much sweeter than if you would get it otherwise. Those who earn success in this way know the road to success. They are not afraid of losing what they have because they have learned how to become successful.
