Failure is intrinsic to the journey to success; the key is to keep going despite it
The most successful people today were far from successful when they started. They failed repeatedly, but they all did something; they tried again.
Here are some heroes who experienced downfalls but pursued until failure detached: Albert Einstein failed in school and started speaking when he turned five. Ben Carson’s teachers didn’t consider him bright and isolated him from the rest of the students. Little did they know that he’d become a world-famous neurosurgeon. A TV producer described Oprah Winfrey as not fit for television. Walt Disney lacked success working for a newspaper, and his editors suggested that his ideas were bland.
Before inventing the light bulb, Thomas Edison had to put up with his teacher’s comments about his alleged stupidity.
Steven Spielberg is a college dropout that became a world-famous director.
Humans learn from a young age to be scared of failure. Perfection is something we constantly strive for. Mistakes and defeats take away the ideal situations we so desperately want. The successful people listed above prove that no journey is smooth. It’s in human nature to make missteps and go through unpleasant experiences. What we have to remember is that failures don’t define us.
On the contrary, they teach us and make us stronger. It’s also important to remember that it’s natural to feel disappointed if you fail. Just don’t let it linger for too long. To do this, keep trying, and you’ll feel better.
⚡️There are no good times without bad times.
These people achieved success because they never gave up. They continued to learn from each failure until they had their breakthrough. But even as successful people, their learning did not stop. They have an uncanny desire to do better than their previous best. They bless the world with their talent, training, passion, and doggedness. Anyone seeking sustainable success today must tow the same line as these greats.
