The Fifth one
Failure
Yes! There comes a day in everyone's life when they fail. But failure in theory is not about losing as any of your friends/wellwishers/family would tell you. They say its about learning from your mistakes , taking your first step towards success.
To tell you the truth, for the most of us, there's little of that. Failure is the time to crib. The time to feel hysterical. The time to voice against the establishment. When do you have time to learn from the mistakes when you've spent all the time venting your rage? When you come out of this phase, you end up being just the same person you've started off with.
So failure in practise is not about losing also. It is about having nothing to lose- you remain unchanged at the end of day.
And if you do learn from your mistakes, its great. But for the rest of us, its ok if you dont either.
Am I right? Let me know

Hi.
Fear is the ultimate driving force. For some of us, fear of failure is a great motivator.
Failure teaches very valuable lessons. The question is not whether one is willing to learn from failure or not. The question is whether one is afraid of failure or not. One who is afraid of failure will take all possible measures to avoid it. Ones knowledge dictates what the measures are.
What if one fails even after doing practically everything in ones powers not to? Then, one automatically learns the new reason that made the failure possible. And if one is afraid of failure, one will consider this knowledge also while planning the next attempt.
There are many original and interesting things I can say in relation to this issue. But I do not want to load this blog. Maybe I will publish them elsewhere.
