2023-03-15 Failure is a Big Part

“The secret of life is to fall seven times and to get up eight times.” — Paulo Coelho, a Brazilian lyricist and novelist

You will not fail or succeed at everything you do. Failure is inevitable. It would be best if you learned to accept that it’s a big part of our lives.

Since we tried to take our first steps as a baby, we have been challenged to fail and learn. Learning from failure can be difficult. However, it’s one of the only guarantees in life. We will fail repeatedly.

The truth is that we must try again… and again…. and again. We eventually mastered taking steps and didn’t let some bumps and bruises hold us back from learning how to walk. You can’t let the fear of failure control your life.

You can close many doors and miss many opportunities if you don’t try out new things and fail. You don’t want to regret missing out on something because you are too afraid of failure.

Failure means growth, change, and progress. It is an attempt at doing something hard and not accomplishing it. Failure is the prerequisite for success.
