Why Your Success Depends On Failure

Something Silly

If at first, you don't succeed, try two more times so that your failure is statistically significant.

Something Serious

Do you give up when you fail, or do you see failure as part of the roadmap to success?

The answer to this question could predict your future success.

Success never comes without failure. Sometimes people just get lucky but success that comes from luck is usually short-lived like buying the winning lottery ticket. Real success is fueled by a bigger commitment, embracing the failures and learning something positive from every one you encounter.

While success is gratifying, hands down, when it comes to failure people will do everything, they can to avoid it. 

Let me explain...

While success is the goal, failure is part of the journey to success. The way past giving up is to change the way you think about failure.

Thomas Edison, the master of failures, is famous for saying,

• “ I have not failed. I have just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

Lesser known was this Thomas Edison saying,

• “Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”

In the end, the way you look at failure can change your path to success.
