    Awesome outlook. I see those failures as war stories that we can share after we have won the battle.

    I see failure as a temporary defeat. If you step with failure, you must go on. You don't know how many steps away from success you are, but as long as you don't stop walking, you will eventually arrive.

      When saying "steps" I meant a metaphoric meaning, not the actual steps. Obviously everyone succeeds by their own ways, using their own methods, but you have to see failure (temporary defeat) as something difficult to avoid, it's one of the steps for success, failure is learning.

    Couldn't agree more. Thanks for the great insights. We should never consider failures as hindrance for success but as a stepping stone and an opportunity to push harder and harder towards our goal.

    no, failure as you see it (temporary defeat) is not something difficult to avoid if you know what to avoid in advance.
    And how do you know what to avoid in advance? By learning. And if you never failed, you never learnt.

    You are helping people, but not everyone recieved help, not everyone has got a shoulder to lean on. I am not talking only about IM, I am talking about life in general. And even though if you did recieve help, there are always up and downs. What I meant is that those up and downs are part of the process.

    I have always got temporary failure, and I find it pretty difficult to avoid. Yes, there are some generous people like you ready to help others, but in some things, even though you'd recieve help, you can fail and you have got to learn by yourself.

    This is like practising a sport, eg: football. A coach can help you succeed to be a good player, but it is what is within you which determines if you are gonna win the football match or not. Maybe you want to be a professional football player in the "Real Madrid" football team, but you have lost 100 football matches. Even if you have got a coach to help you, it's not that easy to avoid failure. A good coach might help you, teach you, but it doesn't guarantee you success.

    Failing is a way of learning. You can learn faster with a coach, but there are some things that you have got to learn by yourself. You wouldn't be able to be a professional football player if you never played, if you never practised, and temporary defeat is a natural thing within practise.

    Success is achieved by continuing to get back up to your feet every time you get knocked down and not getting discouraged. Getting a mentor helps to minimize those knock downs.

    Did you know that the most successful people had the most failure? When you have failure, that means you know don't work and than you look for ways how it works. In the same time, think were we would be today when other people from the past had stopped because they had a failure.

    The other thing is, that when there is a failure there will be also a solution, everything always has two sites, and must have. So failure is one site and success is the other site.

    Failure is definitely a learning experiences.

    I learned the most when face with failure. All achievers failed a couple of times in their life. They learned from it, corrected it and come back again.

      I certainly don't like failure, I don't think anyone does. However I believe it gives you a renewed sense of direction. Don't be hard on yourself, instead learn as much as you can and apply that knowledge in your future.

      Thanks for the post.
