How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success?

View all responses

You can’t succeed if you haven’t failed at least once.

I failed math throughout school. I have an Associate degree in Architecture.

I got a D in German, a B in French, and a C in English. I’m an author.

I was married for 21 years before it ended in divorce. I have three children, six grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.

Throughout my childhood, I was told I would never amount to anything. I was stupid. I joined the Navy, passing the hardest test the military offered at the time.

Am I a failure? Yes because I needed to fail before I could succeed. You can succeed at anything you put your mind to it. You will fail many times before you succeed. Your failure is worth the cost of your success.
