In life we tend to focus on the successes more than the importance of failure. Without failure we would never know how it feels to succeed.

Imagine if your whole life things were handed to you on a plate without any complications or obstacles. You would tend to accept life as easy ride. But along the way failure is designed into the plan so we fully appreciate our progress in the learning experiences in life.

Our views of these two experiences in our life shapes our character and says a lot about who we are and how we look at life.

So how do you view failure?

Failure means you just have to get back up and try again. I realize that the best hitters in baseball have a batting average of only about .350. That's the best hitters, and they only get a hit 3 or 4 times out of 10. So I realize we have to try, try again.

rolleyesSee what you mean about complications and obstacles. It does seem that they put our struggle to succeed into perspective.

I am not a fanatic, but I do like to succeed. I don't turn my hand to everything, but if I do attempt to accomplish something, I will not give up until I have succeeded in completing my project or goal.

I suppose it depends on what it is we are trying to achieve. Some things will take more than one attempt, and first time failure could be viewed as practice.

I think failure teaches us what we can do even when we feel like we can't. I think it is Gods way of revealing the best in us, and not just the common/limited in us. If we fall, we get back up, but pick the best decision next time. Sometimes this lets us know that we can accomplish the best with courage.


myLot reputation of 92/100. taface412 (527)   ranked 655 out of 23,971 in life  2 months ago

It does produce courage. Because we have gained some type of knowledge from each attempt. I forgot to mention that thanks for the input.

It's nice to see there are people out there who do not get hung up on the bad side of things.

I hate failure. But when you stop to realize why you failed, what you can do to not fail next time, etc., it just makes you a stronger person. I have failed a lot in life but I am at a place now where things aren't the best but they are pretty great. And it took all the hardships I went through to build the success that I receive. You have to fail in the beginning to succeed at the end. If you succeed all the time and never fail, than failure is the only thing thats imminent.

I believe things happen for a reason, that if you don't get what you want then it wasn't meant to be.

So I just do my best. After that I don't care about the result anymore. If I fail, I'll learn my lessons then move on.

I view failures as challenges. Each time I fail, I become more motivated to do the best that I can. I also see lots of opportunities in every failure.

There is no reason to fear failure. It happens to most of us. Even Albert Einstein, a genius. Einstein failed an examination that would have allowed him to study for a diploma as an electrical engineer at a technical college.

We have to stand up every time we fall and pursue our goals!

The very opposite of success. when failure comes around well, that don't have to be a serious tragedy. You can try stuff and it may not be for you or could be it wasn't the thing you needed right then and just try it again. failure could be a part of success whereas you may not have that success right out but you can take the failure and use it as a stepping stone to success.

I see failure as a knowledge to know more about what i've done and to not do the same mistakes. Failure is a common thing in life and it makes me stronger. I'm not one to give up easily and i'm proud of that.

I view my failure as a lesson for me. I believe that success in life without failure is nothing. I appreciate it if I failed something in that way, I will know that I would not have to repeat it again.

Well, failure! Whether it'll become a disaster or not depends on you.
If you think it is a disaster then it is, if you view it as a lesson it'll surely do you good.
Sometime you need self-adjustment.
I remember when i was 16, after failed an important exam that i can't attend the best high school in my county while all of my friends go there.At the beginning i thought the world turned its back on me and i was upset about almost everything. Thanks to God that i did self-adjustment and i was getting better and better.
2006, when it came to my most important exam ---college entrance exam i did quite well.
So even you failed don't just give up, it's another kind of precious experience that maybe others won't be able to have!
Have a nice day!

You have just said what a lotta people doesn't look at failure builds character and helps you to succeed. If everyone was to succeed than we would have no true learning proceess.

If at first you don't succeed try and try again.
One persons failure may mean anothers success, but it had to start somewhere.

Only thing I can say is that if you fail at your first attempt keep on until you do although you might have to go another route.
