More on failure
Failure is a feeling long before it becomes an actual result. It’s vulnerability that breeds with self-doubt and then is escalated, often deliberately, by fear.
Michelle ObamaMichelle Obama If you’re not frightened that you might fail, you’ll never do the job. If you’re frightened, you’ll work like crazy.
Cesar ChavezCesar Chavez When talent fails, indignation writes the verse.
JuvenalJuvenal Never feel shame for trying and failing, for he who never failed is he who never tried.
Og MandinoOg Mandino Men never plan to be failures; they simply fail to plan to be successful.
William Arthur WardWilliam Arthur Ward Failure is delay, but not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead-end street.
William Arthur WardWilliam Arthur Ward Remind thyself, in the darkest moments, that every failure is only a step toward success, every detection of what is false directs you toward what is true, every trial exhausts some tempting form of error, and every adversity will only hide, for a time, your path to peace and fulfillment.
Og MandinoOg Mandino The one man to distrust, however, is the man who never makes a mistake, never commits a blunder, never fails in what he tries to do. He is either a phony, or he stays with the safe, the tried, and the trivial.
