Success and failure are friends. You cannot separate them. If you want success, then you must embrace failure.
Why is that? Because success comes after failure. Growth happens after mistakes.
That is why you should not be afraid to fail. Yes, it is not comfortable. It is embarrassing. It makes you look stupid.
It is okay. If you want to succeed in your life, you cannot stop it from happening. You cannot stop failure from visiting you.
When it happens, to move forward, embrace what happened. Do not try to keep it from other people, especially those who can help you.
If they can help you learn from your failure, then bring them in. Do not be too big to learn from other people.
Just because you are not where you are supposed to be, that doesn’t mean you are a failure. No, you are not. You are a learner. You are on a journey, a journey that will never end.
Because failure will never stop.
Remember, failure is not about you. It is about getting better. It is about trying new things.
According to Maulana, ‘… failure is no disaster, for it only serves to make one into a more profound, thoughtful person.’ I agree. If you want to improve yourself, you must embrace failure.
To do that, when you fail, just see it as an opportunity to learn more about what you are doing, to ask more questions, to learn more about yourself, and to learn more about the world around you. And it is.
