If You Fail, Try and Try Again

by SonnyD in Advice, July 14, 2008

In life everyone will fail at something. It could be school, friends, relationships, business finance, a job etc. Failing is a positive thing. When you fail at something, you need to re-evaluate what you did and then correct it.

Many fail and then give up. We must take failure as corrective discipline and make sure it doesn’t happen again. In all honest, I’ve had several failures in my life but never once did I give up. I took every experience, reviewed what made it fail and tried again.

Our history is a great example of the phrase “If you fail, try and try again”. Where would we be if the inventors, actors, writers, business professionals, doctors, lawyers etc. had decided to give up as soon as they encountered one failure? We would probably be without electricity, buildings, plans, stores, phones etc.

Failure is just another starting point to do it better and greater. We must set an example for the generations to come just like our forefathers did for us. We must not give up. If we fail, we must try and try again.
