How many times have you asked yourself…“What is the key to Success?” What is the answer? Well, that depends on what your view of failure is. Rhonda Abrams, a small business expert says, “Change how you view failure”
Our culture emphasizes success rather than failure. In fact, we avoid talking about our disappointments and choose to focus on the positive. Certainly keeping a positive attitude is important, but why do we try so hard to conceal our failures?
Most people believe that positive thinking will lead to positive results. This is a wonderful attitude as long as it does not prevent us from learning from our failures. Lessons from our failures could be our most insightful guides.
Chances are, sooner or later you will experience a failure (if you have not already). So what then? Do you stop trying? Should you ignore the failure and continue on the same path? Or will you reexamine your goals, choices and methods to see if there is a different or even a better path to take?
Do you think Becky Anderson was without failure? Absolutely not! Becky was faced with many of the same challenges that we are but she chose to continue after a fall.
She chose to pick herself up & turn her failing into a success by changing & persevering.
In fact, most successful people will tell you that some of the most positive events in their lives were, at the time, things they viewed as "failures". You see, when they were faced with a hurdle, they were forced to either quit or reshape their thinking. Successful people choose to make changes and continue. Failure is not the actual event; failure occurs when we do not learn from the event.
