From the onset, the “fail to succeed” idea seems wild. Crazy, even! After all, failure is the complete opposite of success. It sounds like the philosophy of a madman!

Why would anyone want to fail to succeed? Read this article and find out.

Fail To Succeed Reason # 1: Failure Can Help You Succeed In The Long Run.

There’s always a lesson at the end of the story. Succeeding the first time is great and all, but would you have known all that you know now had you not made mistakes that first time?

Let me use a simple example about a girl who almost won a race. The girl was close to winning the marathon when she suddenly tripped and fell on an upturned root. Because of that, she failed to win the contest. However, she learned to be careful of where she was going. Everybody knows that, of course.

But classroom knowledge is different from knowledge gained from experience. The latter one tends to stick around a little longer. The girl, though she lost the marathon, also learned about first-aid when she was taken to the clinic—knowledge she found useful many years after. But that is another story for another time.

Fail To Succeed Reason # 2: Failure Builds Resilience.

Every time you fail, you get up and try again. And every time you get up, you get stronger and better. That is, if you don’t give up the fight right away.

Resilience is not something people are born with. It’s something that needs to be worked on. You might think that constantly failing is doing nothing to help your cause.

On the contrary, constantly failing is helping your resilience take form. It is preparing you for an unknown future. Whatever life throws at you, you’ll always be able to survive it.

Fail To Succeed Reason # 3: Failure Can Lead to Greater Things.

Sometimes, it is not yet your time to succeed. Take Jennifer Hudson for example. She was a contestant in the world famous American Idol reality show but she didn’t bag the title in the end.

However, who knew that she would rise to become a bigger and better celebrity when the right time and the right opportunity came? Well, she did! And now, she’s more famous than any of her fellow American Idol contestants.

The “fail to succeed” concept may be confusing to some, but it does work. However, this idea does not state that you will remain a failure forever. There will come a time when you will have the opportunity to turn your failure into a success.

Hey, Stop Snoozing Over There!

May 8, 2011 - 9:07:14 AM

We lead lives filled with bells and whistles. Unfortunately, they aren't the kind that mean upgrades! Instead, I'm referring to the constant alerts that sound during our day starting with the alarm clock in the morning signaling that a new day has begun to the wristband alert at night reminding us to take our medication. The good news is that these alerts help us remember to do all the things we need to get done each day. Unfortunately, there's a "bad news" part too.... [Read the full story]

Which Books To Keep? - Making Really Hard Choices

Mar 20, 2011 - 3:55:47 PM

When I downsized to a small cottage about six years ago, I had to pare down the number of books I owned. This was a huge issue for me. I'm a book fanatic. All hope is lost when I walk into a bookstore. We're talking hundreds of dollars a visit. In fact, if I have less than 15 books scattered around the house waiting to be read, I get nervous!...
