The Only Failure- Is In Not Trying

An Oldie but Goodie!
When many of us think of failure, we think of things not working out after we have tried something. This is not failure. 

We think that failure is not accomplishing a goal we have set. This is not failure either. 

Failure is not setting a goal in the first place. 
 
Failure is in not trying at all.

It might be time to change the way that you look at failure.

The only Failure is in never ever even trying.

Also, you may have to attempt something more than once. You may have to attempt something a dozen, a hundred, or even a thousand times. 

If it is important to you, the "no's" will not hold you back but rather be used as a teaching tool on how to try harder and differently the next attempt! 

Just do not stop trying!

And- do not compare yourself to others!
