"Failure, learning from your accidents... catapults you through the learning curve very quickly."
"Failure. Learning from your accidents... catapults you through the learning curve very quickly.
My kids often give up instantly when they lose at something. That’s ok. They just aren’t interested.
But once you find something where you pick yourself up and you say, “I HAVE TO DO BETTER” next time. THEN you know you are onto something – a passion, a dream, the field where you can become a grandmaster, the field where you can become an entrepreneur.
It’s a secret you learn about yourself and you can be privately proud that at last you have found the area where very few people will be able to compete.
99% of people give up after a failure.... It’s the best filter that will tell you you will eventually succeed."
