Looking Beyond Failures To Success

Most times, what many people consider as failure is just part of the success story. Someone may fail at the first trial and when they are to try again, they will not be trying as novice but with the experiences of their past trial and they will have better result. You see, that's how to seize the opportunity and turn failure into success.

If someone fails that the first attempt, it does not make them a failure as long as that attempt is not their last attempt. The person becomes a failure if they refuse to put up another attempt after their last failed attempt. This is why I have always said that failure and success are choices that come, not because of your situation, but because of your choice. You may try and not succeed initially and the situation may be suggesting "giving up", well, if you succumb to the dictates of the prevailing situation, then that is the real failure, but if you can move ahead of it, then success is very possible.

Many of the successful people you know today were, at a point in their lives, miles away from success but they refused to throw in the towel. They kept giving it another trial until success beckoned. An example of such people is the inventor Thomas Edison. After many trials and inputs (both financial and time-wise), he finally hit his invention. If you won't give up, then failure has nothing on you.

Each time something suggests failure to you, just remind yourself that this is the springboard you need to ascend higher and the setback is only a step backwards that will give you the leverage to engage a better comeback. This will pump in you the required energy to still give it one more trial. And boom!! That's success.

Most times, the point where people quit is often the point closest to their breakthrough point. This is why you should not afford to quit. Cos all the efforts you have put in will not be rewarded. Obviously, what is rewarded is not the quantity of efforts you have engaged but the quality of the result you have.

Whenever you are trying again after a failed attempt, you should bear one thing in mind: if you want to have an entirely different result from the one you had initially, then it is demanded that you should try another approach. This is because you cannot keep doing something in similar format and hope for it to produce a different result. Always remember that success does not answer to wishes, neither is it a gift, but it answers to actions of perseverance, persistence, diligence, determination and discipline.
