People often complain that they have repeatedly tried to do a particular task, attempted it multiple times but have failed miserably. However, we must understand that success is going from failure to failure to failure, without loosing ones enthusiasm. We really never fail until we give up trying; trying, with determination and with enthusiasm.
Vision, real vision is to see the invisible. To feel the intangible and to achieve the impossible. Actually challenges or failures can be stepping stones or stumbling blocks on the road to success. It is all a matter of how we look at it. You can see a glass is half empty, you can see a glass is half full. One will bring you enthusiasm, one will bring you discouragement. We can apply that principle to every aspect of our life. But what is of real importance is that we know we are doing the right thing. We learn from our mistakes.
A mistake is only a mistake if we fail to learn from it. Real leaders make many, many mistakes, but they do not repeat them.
They learn from them, they remain enthusiastic; they remain determined for the goal. Actual champions in every situation, they are always focused on their goals. They make goals; and losers make excuses. Our life is what we make of it. Failure is a very minor stumbling block on the road to success, which we need to overcome by remaining spiritually strong, by surrendering to God and being persistent in our efforts.
Srila Prabhupada propounded: “Learn from the failures and you will be better equipped to serve".
Failures build characters. Pressure is something, that only comes to one who earns it. We should respect pressures as an honour. We cannot be successful unless we have the courage to fail. And every failure contains the seed of success. To be successful in any venture of life is very difficult. To fail is very easy. It is very difficult to roll a stone to the top of a mountain; it is very easy to push it down. We must learn from our mistakes, we must learn from our failures, and thus we become stronger, we have greater integrity. By maintaining strong faith in the Divine, the will of the Supreme Lord, we do not get disheartened, rather we realize the fundamental principle that failure is the pillar of success.
