"The only failure is the failure to learn from failure."--Kevin Everett FitzMaurice "Failure is NOT Fatal."--Anonymous Failure is not a thing. Failure is caused by bad choices not your being bad. Failure is not a catastrophe that you must panic over. Failure is the teacher that presents the experience of doing it wrong. Failure is the path to winner. Failure is the advice to problem-solve or cope. Failure is full of information you need. Failure is the fear that produces failures. Failure is not a sign to quit the game, but, rather, a sign to go back and read the rules again. Failure can be felt as inferior or failure can be studied to produce superior performance.
