What is failure & why do we have to face it? It is a process in which a person is unable to perform a desired task within a specific time frame. The main reason we face failure is not because we are not interested in that task but we have lack of patience.
Lack of perseverance is the biggest problem bounded by the obligation to do some work out of one’s desire. For instance, parents often decide their children’s career & many kids are unable to cope up with the burden. Fearing failure, many end up being depressed.
Depression in children is becoming very common these days. According to one survey, children below the age of 13 have the same mental pressure that people with acute depression had in 1950. The suicide rate in children is increasing more than India’s GDP at 7.9%.
One must know that many great personalities once failed, but their perseverance led them to greater heights in life. Mark Zuckerberg, a college dropout, founded the biggest social networking site Facebook.
Bill Gates is an another example. Few know that despite belonging to a financially sound family, Gates never took their help & after his first Company failed & left him bankrupt, he bounced back to open Microsoft. He has been adjusted as the richest person of the world several times.
As H.Ross. Perot said ” Most people give up just when they are about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game, one foot from winning touchdown”. So never give up.
~ Failure is not a block but a stepping stone to success ~
