Failure is a Teacher Not a Defeat

Lou knew that failure means you tried and that is so important. Making a mistake, failing at something and then learning from it makes us so much better.

Failure is a Teacher Not a Defeat

“Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is

delay not defeat. It is a temporary detour. Not a dead end.”

Denis Waitley, Self-Help Author and Speaker

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Failure is a teacher not a defeat

 

A failure may delay you forward progress . . . . But it’s only a temporary condition.

 

As a result of a failure you may find yourself taking a detour . . . . But that detour resets your GPS and puts back on track to successfully reach your objectives.

 

Failure is not a dead end . . . . it’s a teacher.  It’s a new beginning to move forward with   increased experience and knowledge.

 

What happens as a result of failure is a mindset . . . . with the mindset of a positive attitude you will find a way to successfully navigate the condition . . . . and to resume your forward progress.

 

A failure is a temporary condition . . . . unless your mindset makes it permanent . . . .

 

Failure is a teacher it may delay the forward progress on your success journey . . . . with the right attitude you can make it a very short delay.

Failure is a great teacher if you learn the lesson

I believe there is far less failure than we think, but far more lessons!

I remember this post, Kathy, from Lou. And failure is a teacher and if we look at it that way we'll keep trying new things without fearing failure.

Yes, I like the idea of substituting the word "failure" for "lesson". Lesson is such a positive word.

I remember this one and agree totally. I have always thought that mistakes and failures have a  great purpose. We don't have to make them again if we will just learn.
