Hi lovely people,
Welcome to my blog and my entry for #24 contest in this beautiful community. I am very excited to participate in another episode again. I must sincerely show my heartfelt gratitude towards this community for their unrelenting efforts in ensuring weekly and consistent delivery of the engagement. Kindly follow me as I share my own attempt on the entire subject matter.
What does failure mean to you?
As a way of introduction, failure could mean different thing to different people however I intend to do justice as much as I can. Failure is when goals are not achieved or attained. Failure could be seen as lack of success. Failure could also mean a process in which a particular desire isn't actualize or achieved.
Failure means when an individual tried a thing and couldn't get the requisite results at the end, u termed it as failure. For instance if a student attempted an external examination like WAEC and could not pass all the subject it means the student failed.
What do you do when you fail?
As I earlier stated and briefly define what a failure is. I see failure as a pathway for huge success and a way of life. I don't think there's anyone that hasn't failed before. I will share practically when I attempted a particular task and failed, what do I do?
- I tried to convince myself not to give up instead strive to do things over and over again till I achieved a desirable goal. Just be dogged
- Learn from other people's experiences. This will become a spring board for you to correct yourself and avoid repeat of such defeat.
- Have a mentor or a coach who are very free with to share deep things of the mind with and confide in to share your personal life challenges with.
- Read books. I believe no experience is knew because many might have passed through similar situations therefore consult other materials to ensure you build up self esteem and confidence.
What advice would you give to someone who has failed?
As my title rightly captured it, failure isn't the final bus stop rather is a preparatory ground for more accomplishments. When you fail today, make efforts to be better tomorrow by ensuring that you don't repeat same thing. Don't be weary and don't take too many opinions from people. It can easily distract you and perhaps makes you fail the more. A scientist failed for about ninety nine times but the last attempt he arrived at his destiny.
Conclusively, the journey to destiny is characterised by lots pitfalls of failure and success but in the all they are just basic components for a better build up and strategically positioned one's self for greatness.
