Ricardo V Every time I start a new project I ask myself “Am I TRYING to Fail”. Failure is emotional, physical, psychological, and spiritual. It can be described as a mindset, a result, a heartache, a bankruptcy, and an escape. I mention escape because anyone who has ever truly “succeeded” has failed 100x times before that success.
Failure Quotes:
Barack Obama, our 44th US president, once said “Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it’s not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won’t. it’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere.”
One of the greatest US basketball players ever, Michael Jordan, once said “I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.”

Failure as Described by Wikipedia is, “Failure refers to the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success.” When first coined it was meant to express inability to accomplish. Usually related to the context of agriculture and field production or small chores.
Since failure and success are opposites we seem to have a distinct choice between the two. Thus either unintentionally or intentionally we choose whether to fail or succeed, at a task or chore. Don’t you want to make the right choice, as soon as possible?
