Failure is more talked about and memorized than success due to human tendency of focusing spotlight more on negative parts than the positive ones. People may be fearful with failure but the effortless truth is – no great success has been ever achieved without failure. Look at the failure with different perspective. Failures are the intermediate steps towards the journey of success. Every failure has some new life lesson to teach you and add on your experience to make your ride more powerful on the path of success.
