4 Reasons Why You Need to Fail In Order To Succeed

June 12, 2016 by Priya Batra

The saying rightly goes as “If you’ve never failed, you’ve never lived.” One of the major aspects of an individual’s life from which they are afraid is the failure. But the truth is that every individual has failed in his/her life and will fail again. The people who are successful in their lives have failed many times, but their failure never able to stop their journey towards success. Those people stood up back again and tried for achieving success.

We, people often think that the successful people are lucky enough to get the success with their right connections or just they are lucky enough to get it. But, apart from the success on which we actually focus, we actually ignore the failure, the struggle they have gone through the years. We mostly see the bright side of their success, but we forget to see their hard work which they have put in those years. Those struggling years brings in the motivational and inspiring stories.

The Greatest Teacher

Failure is the greatest teacher in an individual’s life because if your success would be the quickest one, you would probably possess an attitude of FEAR towards failure. It is must to face failures in life if you really want to succeed because it is the ultimate lesson of our lives. No matter how hard to try to avoid failure in your life, it will certainly go to happen. Failures help people in developing an attitude of NO FEAR in life.

I do not mean to say that “Expect to Fail”, but I just want to say that when failure happens, “ACCEPT IT”. Every failure has a value in it. It helps the person in knowing themselves in a better way. They make us rethink and helps in making us learn from our mistakes. When we rethink about our strategies while walking down the road to success, failure helps us in reconsidering and finding new ways for achieving our goals.

Reach to your Potential

Failure helps a person in reaching their potential because one of the biggest secrets of success is operating oneself out of the comfort zone and inside the strength zone. So, if you really want to reach out to the best in you, then it is must to push yourself and not fear about the failures. When you will develop an NO FEAR failure attitude and start embracing your failures, you will be more determined, motivated and perseverant.

Brings Humbleness and Character in You

Failure is just too speculative for our ego and no one really wants to face it. But, it helps in making us humble and evaluating ourselves within the situation in a better way. If you will keep your ego in charge, then you will never be able to learn from your mistakes and you will never allow the views coming from other people or even couldn’t be able to see the whole situation clearly.

It is must to learn from your mistakes, evaluate yourself and listen to the views and advice of other people. These all together helps in changing the order of our journey towards success. Your ego will always get in a way between your goal and you, but if we really want to be successful, then we have to accept our mistakes, evaluate them, learn from them and resume our journey towards success.

Determines the kind of a person

Every person takes failure in a different way, but here I will talk about two types of people. On one hand, there are people who take failure personally and see it as a permanent situation of life and just give up. While on another hand, there are people who see failure as a temporary setback in life and use it as a tool of a lesson to learn from it. When we fail, we get an emotionally low which is natural and inevitable.

But do you know what determines our road to success? It is how we respond to our failures. I would say whenever you fail and feel emotionally low, just read through the stories J.K. Rowling or Oprah Winfrey because their journey will give you motivational to move on.

We live in a society where people tend to make us learn about the unacceptable failures in life. They make us learn that if we fail means that we aren’t good enough or we haven’t just tried hard enough to succeed. We are always taught to be ashamed of our failures by this society we live in. This whole situation has made people avoid the possibility of the failures and thus, they just stopped trying different things in life.

The whole system is loved by the people because they are happy with their 9-to-5 jobs wherein the chances of failure are minimal. The thinking of the society keeps people away from getting out and achieving their dreams and taking the chance. But, what will happen if you take a chance and fail?

Just think..

When you try something and fail, still you are further to those people who never tried it. Failure is not a setback in your life. It is a stepping-stone which is necessary for achieving the success and brings you closer to your dreams. Your dreams and the hopes are just the mere conditions of your happiness, but if you will never try, you will regret it later in your life.

Do you know that your decision to act is the most difficult thing in your life? Yes, it is because the rest is nothing more than your persistent determination. Every person is destined to success and every person wants to be a ruler of his empire. So, if you have dreamt of being successful in life, then you have to fight back. You are born to do something, to take actions and it is really important to get motivation which propels you to succeed in your life. Every individual gets inspired and motivated; few from their ideals while few through the quotes by others. What I feel is the best to get inspired is through the motivational quotes because failures play an important role in achieving success.

So, guys, it is really important to find better ways for running your life. Just take the risks and don’t be afraid of failure because your failures will only help you in improving. Failure is not a CURSE, but a BLESSING. So, just embrace and learn from your failures and keep MOVING FORWARD or else DIE.
