It's almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kindof failure. But, the wonderful thing about failure is that it's entirely up to us todecide how to look at it.
We can choose to see failure as "the end of the world," orwe can look atfailure as the incredible learning experience that it often is. Every time we fail atsomething, we can choose to look for the lesson we're meant to learn. Theselessons are very important; they're how we grow, and how we keep from
making that same mistake again. Failures stop us only if we let them.
Failure can also teach us things about ourselves that we would never havelearned otherwise. For instance, failure can help you discover how strong aperson you are. Failing at something can help you discover your truest friends,or help you find unexpected motivation to succeed.
