Success is your portion
Did you know that failure can actually transform your life? Yes failure can alter your life altogether. You just need to know how that happens. As I always say, success is your portion and you were actually born to succeed. So success is basically your birthright. You are actually entitled to it. It is your right.
You might have failed there and there but that does not mean you are a failure. You are just failing but you are not a permanent failure because you were born to be a success. You see, there is a huge difference between being a failure and failing. Failure is permanent but failing is only a temporary thing. Don’t confuse the two things.
Each and every one of us have failed somewhere. We onced failed sometimes. I have never met a person who has never failed in their life. If there is such a person, then he is not normal. Failure is what makes us better human beings at the end of the day. Without failure, we cannot see success. Without rain, there is no sunlight.
Don’t limit the subject of failure to school only. Failure is very broad. Yes you can fail a test as a student. You can have a failed relationship. You can fail as a parent. You see, failure is very broad. It does not start and end with school.
How can failure then transform your life?
Failure is one of the tools of transformation. It can also change and transform your life. How does that happen though? Failure? Out of all things? Yes failure out of all things. Failure carries the transformative power as well.
When you fail, if you are a person that loves growth, you will want to bounce back from it. Think about when you are at school, the moment you fail a class, you want to come back stronger in the next year. You rectify all your mistakes and learn all you have to learn. It is during this time that something transformative is happening in your life. It is during this time that changes are taking place in your mind.
I also love the athletes. Failure motivates this kind of individuals. You should listen to them in their interviews after defeats. They also talk about how they messed up and got it all wrong. They also talk about how they will work hard and come back again stronger in the next match.
They talk about how they will do better the next time. They don’t give up. They don’t throw a towel. They don’t drop the mic. That’s where transformation in their minds is taking place. That’s where greater shifts are taking place.
You are sometimes not a failure but just a person who does not know how to succeed. Failure is also key for your transformation. If go through failure, of which you will do one way or the other, instead of being depressed, use that moment of failure for your transformation. Use that moment of failure to come back stronger the next time.
Conclusion
