*Eight Things About Failure * * * *To fail is not the same as being a failure. *
*One may have many failings and yet still be far from being a failure.* * * *To fail is not the disgrace everyone thinks it is. * *To err is to do nothing more than to join the human race.* * * *Failure is only a temporary setback. * *Failure is never the final chapter of the book of your life unless you give up and quit.* *Nothing worthwhile is ever achieved without running the risk of failure. * *The person who risks everything to try to achieve something truly worthwhile and fails is anything but a disgraceful failure.* * * *Failure is a natural preparation for, success. * *Strange as it may seem to some of you, success is much more difficult to live with successfully than is failure.* * * *Every failing brings with it the possibilities of something greater. * *Analyze failure under whatever circumstances you choose, and you will discover some seeds for turning failure into success.* * * *What you do with failures in your life is up to you. * *Failure is either a blessing or a curse, depending upon the individual reaction or response to it.* * * *Failings are opportunities to learn how to do things better the next time and to learn where the pitfalls are and how to avoid them. * *The best possible thing to do with failure is to learn all you can from it. * * * * * * * -- "By your thoughts you are daily, even hourly, building your life; you are carving your destiny" - Ruth Barrick Vanakkam Subbu
