"Failure Or Success"

Success is what happens when you set out to make the world a better place, and when you keep going long enough to bring it about. Failure is what happens when you’re convinced that the whole world is against you, and you persist in making that belief into a reality.

Success is what happens when you look for ways to create new value, and then enthusiastically follow those possibilities. Failure is what happens when you think the world owes you something and you expect to live off the value created by others.

Success is what happens when you open your mind to new ideas while keeping yourself grounded by proven virtues. Failure is what happens when you think you know it all and when you consider civilized behavior a waste of time.

Success is what happens when you find a way to take positive, effective action, no matter what obstacles may stand in your way. Failure is what happens when you become better at making excuses than at getting results.

Success is the consequence of certain specific thoughts, attitudes and efforts, and failure results from other thoughts, attitudes and efforts. Every moment is leading you to some very real, very specific results. And every moment, with the thoughts, attitudes and actions you choose, you can determine just what those results will be -- success or failure.

"The Fear Of Success"

The fear of failure is also the fear of success. If you hold yourself back due to fear of failure then you will be cut off from the possibility of success.

Achievement requires effort, and effort often results in disappointment. Yet that is really not such a bad thing.

In fact, disappointment does not have to hurt you or even slow you down. Instead of making a big deal about it, you can choose to continue making your way forward.

With no risk, there is no reward. Take the risk, make the effort, get past the disappointments, and work your way to the rewards.

Don’t seek failure, but don’t fear it either. Act with confidence, knowing each failure that may come will bring you closer to success.

Instead of worrying that you might encounter disappointment, put your energy, awareness and effort into doing what you can do. Even when you get it wrong, keep going, and before long you’ll have it right.

"Success In Failure"

There is Success in Failure....

Some of the most innovative and creative people are those who are willing to undertake projects that will probably fail. Creativity depends heavily on exploration, and when you’re exploring new territory, you often run into dead ends.

When you do have to turn back, when you do have the experience of failure, that’s not a sign to abandon the endeavor. In fact, it’s a signal that you’re making progress. After all, you’ve learned what doesn’t work, and that will help you to eventually discover what does work.

The most successful people look at failure as simply another step in the process of success. Failure is not a reason to stop -- quite the contrary. Indeed, each failure becomes a new and more advanced starting point.

An important part of the determination to succeed is the willingness to fail, and the confidence to see every failure as temporary. So explore new ideas. Attempt new and ambitious projects. Of course you’ll make mistakes. Sure, you’ll run into some dead ends. And each time you do, you’ll be moving forward toward ultimate, certain success.
