So many people were raised with the NASA motto “Failure Is Not An Option.” But to fail is to learn. To fail at something makes one work harder to succeed the next time. I’m am never afraid to tell people I failed at something. My motto is: If I try ten things and fail at nine, I am one success ahead of the person that didn’t try at all.

Yes, it sometimes hurts when you fail at something, but when you succeed, it is the most beautiful feeling in the world.

Keep in mind; the many times we saw a baby try to walk, only to fail in the effort and fall? Now think of the baby that finally succeeded and the broad smile on that angelic face. See, we, all of us, failed and failed and fell and failed. But ultimately, we succeeded. Never forget that!
