Great minds work towards improvements, they continuously learn and achieve targets. They learn how to get from failure to success. Inner defeat should be avoided as it is the most dangerous form of defeat. We will come out as a winner from any situation if we believe in ourselves. So the belief that I will be a winner against all odds is the need of the hour.
The success can be achieved only with the self-confidence and hard work with constant effort. So never ignore the value of perseverance and hard work. The hard work does not mean doing work without planning and goal. It is very necessary to have a proper goal and strategy.
In the present scenario hard work has been changed to smart work that means doing the work in an efficient way. The value of work increases in terms of various factors such as time and efficiency with smart work. Smart work provides efficient use of available resources. It also provide us knowledge about best possible ways to do certain things.
So we have a lot of options with smart work. Failure gives various option of improvement for a particular work. It gives us opportunity for providing perfect work output. So instead of taking failure as a negative concept embrace positivity in it and go for improvement.
“Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It’s quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn’t at all. You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it, So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember that’s where you will find success.” ~ Thomas J. Watson
Learn from your mistakes is the way from Failure to Success
We can always learn from our mistakes if we clearly identify them. This is the main reason why most of us find it difficult to learn from mistakes due to its lack of clarity.
Mistakes are an integral part of success. So don’t hesitate to commit mistakes. The more you make mistakes, the more you learn. The most successful people in the world did a lot of mistakes to achieve success in their life. They learnt from their mistakes and got succeed.
It is rightly said that “The road to success and the road to failure are almost exactly the same.” ~ Colin R. Davis
Therefore always focus on your target and try to achieve it no matter how many failures come in your way. JUST DO IT!!!
We all learnt from our mistakes in our life starting from the first day at school to the last day at college. Learning from mistakes has been our regular activity and because of that, we came out as stronger and more successful person.
So you have been a winner all your life but due to some reasons, you have forgotten it. Therefore it is high time to re-think all your abilities and move ahead in your life.
“To be successful you must accept all challenges that come your way. You can’t just accept the ones you like.” ~ Mike Gafka
When a child learns to walk, there are a lot of falls along the way before getting success. So failure teaches us a lot to get success. Don’t take failures seriously they are part and parcel of the learning process. Just learn from each one of those mistakes and move ahead.
We all know about Edison, how he failed a lot to get success in inventing the electric bulb. Just like him, we can achieve success in life despite having a lot of failures. When you feel low just look back on what you have achieved in the past and bounce back to achieve success.
“Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don’t really matter.” ~ Francis Chan
When you do your next project just do it without any fear of failure. Just do all your research, find a suitable team full of commitment and go for it.
We are winners by birth, as we know we have won the race during conception. So we are a winner by nature. Therefore never think of yourself as a failure. Failure is the first step towards success. It is rightly said that to achieve great success in life you have to fail a lot.
Failure means delay not defeat. You can be successful by critically analyzing your work and approach. There is no such thing as failure in the universe, only your approach can be wrong.
“Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.” ~ Dale Carnegie
“Failure is the condiment that gives success its flavour.”~ Truman Capote
Whenever it is possible, learn from the mistakes of others. That is why books can be an important source of learning. we must read some books especially some biographies. The biographies of great personalities can definitely provide some valuable information. In this way, we can learn a lot and can save our energy and time.
Focus on your target and forget failure
The target is necessary for our growth and success. Target determination is most important factor for achieving any goal. If we have a target, we can channelize our resources and energy in the right direction to achieve success in life.
The importance of having a target in life can not be overlooked. So define a feasible target first before moving to achieve it. Every successful person has one thing is common i.e. they have a well defined target in their life. They use all their energy and required resources to achieve that target.
So in case of failure don’t lose heart and hope instead focus on your target and be enthusiastic and deterministic to achieve your target. It will revamp your confidence level and your energy. You will start looking for ways to achieve the target and forget about failure.
Think about success all the time
The more we think about success the more chances we have for achieving success. It is the tendency of our mind that we try to achieve the things we think of always. So take the advantage of this function of the mind. As we know our mind has unlimited power. It can achieve anything in this world if we handle it properly and with mindfullness.
So never ignore the importance of thinking about the target all the time. In this way, we sending positive vibes to our mind that what we have to achieve. The mind starts working in the proper direction with full attention and effort to achieve the target for you.
In this process of thinking, we forget about the failure that occurred last. It is better to forget about failure but don’t forget the lesson it gave you. So just take a failure take lesson and throw it away and start working in the suitable direction for your target.
It will enhance positivity in us that makes a good mental capacity in us. We will be able to handle every situation in life without any fear of failure. This nature can be developed with some practice of course. Once it is developed believe me you will never think about failure in life again. You know failure is the part of a successful journey .it is inevitable so why fear. Just strip lesson from this failure and go on to achieve success in your life.
One thing keep in mind that people never remember your effort. They see only result. So ready to do work with your full energy and resources for achieving the target.
I have read some biographies that helped me a lot to move from failure to success. The experiences from the books have given me a path to think and improve. It also illustrated what we should not do. So by reading these books we can achieve success in a shorter period of time.
There are various success stories that can inspire us. We all know about Thomas Edison and his failures during his invention of the bulb. Edison failed about 10000 times to achieve success. Instead of talking about the failure he once said ” I have not failed 10000 times but found successfully found 10000 ways that will not work. Therefore we must see the positive in every failure and take it as successful ways of not doing the things as Edison said.
History is filled with such examples where people got success after handling their failures. So believe in yourself and do work continuously without any fear of failure. You will be successful and rewarded.
Therefore I’d like to suggest some of the great biographies of all time that will definitely help you in achieving your target in life. Some biographies you can refer to:-
