I am convinced that the more you fail in life, the better chances you have to learn from your mistakes and become successful. In fact, the way I see failure is that we are always getting it right even when it appears we have made a mistake or failed. It leads to a greater understanding and wisdom for us to overcome our obstacles and have a better and brighter future. There for I consider failure a better teacher than success.
Some of my most terrifying memories involve my failure in many things. It does not mean I am not successful in life. I remember how I got very upset when I was eliminated from the national country championships when I was eleven. That day I thought the sky will fall on me because I was not rewarded after a long time of preparations. I was so disappointed that I deserted workout for a period of time. But when I thought about it, it seemed foolish to me and I said to my self: I like running, and if I try harder with more discipline, I can grow better and stronger. Following this simple concept, I was able to become number one in my team, and I have been selected to represent my country in an international event. Furthermore, I learned one important thing from this experience: we must be willing to accept responsibility for failure before we do for success. By doing so we are opening ourselves to be tested a second time and to replace the failure by success. But unfortunately, nowadays most people do not want to take failure seriously, they do not want to take any true accomplishment in life because they do not want the responsibility for having their activities fail.
Failures are not random things. We make them we cause them. This means we can learn ways to avoid them in the future and become more aware of our mistakes. In addition, it is like a detour, just like taking a new path that lead to a place different from your initial destination. But along the way, you acquire more useful hints to help you find your path.
