Failure

Failure, is an unlikely word to have in our life. Most people have been programmed to fear this thing call failure. Yet, we can sometimes think of times when we wanted 1 thing but got different one, we have all failed a test, suffered through a relationship that didnt work out, put together a working plan but it went away. Its frustrated, isnt it? For once, I did. Now, I treat failures as trials. Sometimes, when you flip through newspapers, people always succeed in getting some sort of results, awards, price, labels... etc. Actually, these succeesfull people are not people who dont fail, but simply people who know that if they try something and it doesnt give them what they want, they have had learning experience. They use what they have learned and try something else to prodoce better results. However, people who fear failure create thoughts of what if it didnt work out. This is what limits the chances and possibilities that could lead to succees. So, are you afraid of failure? How about, how do you feel about learning? Which one sounds nicer?

I bet you have heard of Thomas Edison. This was the story of him crating a light bulb. After he had tried 9999 times to perfect the light bulb and failed, someone asked him, "Are you going to have 10000 failures?" He answered, "I didnt fail. I just dicover another way to invent the electric light bulb." And now we have, lights. You see, if Thomas Edison gave up trying, what would we probably had now? In reality, believing in failure creates negative emotions, they affect our thinking process and you eventually get down of yourselves. If, you knew that you wouldnt fail, what whould you attempt to do? Results? Everthing was perfect! Thats it! Wouldnt be better to try things off? Isnt that the only way to grow through learning?

Now, my friends, who have been suffering from failure, stand up. And start to realise that there is no such thing as failure. There are only results. You always produce results. No matter how the outcomes will be. You will never fail. If its not the one you desire, just change your actions, and you will produce a new result.

"Our doubts are traitors, And make us lose the good we oft might win, By fearing to attempt." William Shakespeare

Cheer and peace out.
