THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FAILURE

I was taught never to look back in regret but to move on to the next thing. The amount of time people waste dwelling on failures rather than putting that energy into another project, always amazes me. A setback is never a bad experience, just a learning curve.

 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FAILURE

1. To fail is not the same thing as being a failure

2. To fail is not the disgrace everyone thinks it is

3. Failure is only a temporary setback

4. Nothing worthwhile is ever achieved without running the risk of failure

5. Failure is a natural preparation for success

6. Every failing brings with it the possibilities of something greater

7. What you do with failures is up to you

8. Failings are opportunities to learn how to do things better the next time-to learn where the pitfalls are and how to avoid them.

Try never to be the smartest person in the room. And if you are, I suggest you invite smarter people, or find a different room.
