Making a positively good difference in our lives
Experiencing failure is inevitable...
people make mistakes all the time,
but rarely are our mistakes or failures
catastrophic or fatal.
To be human is to make mistakes
and fail at some things,
but life goes on.
We should never equate our worth
by the failures which
may have occurred in our lives.
Failures are never a complete
representation of who we are.

Sometimes...
failure is where the majic is made.
Failure can press us
and give us greater determination,
strength, and insight.
Our failures can lead to
greater discoveries!

Through our failures
we can learn more than ever
about our strengths,
talents, and resolve.
Our failures can be
accidental realizations
that give us new perspectives
and greater vision.
Our failures can be the impetus...
the foundation for greater successes.
Embracing possible failure is key
to taking on a variety of challenges.
Our failures can catapult us
to new heights!
Our highest hopes are often delayed or failures.
Most delays and failures prepare us
for bigger and better things.
The “Negative” phases of failure
can actually perform a constructive function.
Failure can force us to accept our loss
and prepare us for the task of rebuilding,
and this rebuilding can yield beautiful results.
Our failures may contain in its debris
all that we need in order to perform
our true purpose in life.
It's not success or failure...
it's success and failure
that leads us to genuine innovation.
Most success stories have a shared foundation
in not succeeding in what they first attempted.
Most success stories share many botched first attempts
and errors which may have been
the key ingredient needed to give birth
to higher revelations and possibilities.
Failure is often the rock bottom foundation
that spurs us to real success.
Some of the world's most successful people
experienced massive failure before succeeding.

through hard work, guts, and perseverance
are now renowned for their achievements.
We must embrace failure as a necessary step
to unprecedented success.
When Sidney Poitier first auditioned
for the American Negro Theater
he flubbed his lines and spoke in a heavy Caribbean accent
which made the director angrily tell him to
stop wasting his time.

with a couple of failed automobile businesses.
When we take a closer look at the great achievers,
throughout history,
we will notice that they were able to see the lessons
of the experience and continue to push forward.
The capacity to err is crucial to human cognition.
To achieve any worthy goal,
we must take risks.
We may fail incredibly,
or we may succeed incredibly,
but to achieve our personal best,
to reach unparalleled heights,
to make the impossible possible...
we must not fear failure.
May the fear of regret
become your fuel to press on,
and take your rightful place in life.
There is no honest and true work,
with constant and sincere purpose,
that ever really fails.
Noble efforts will make seeming failures,
but trifles.
