I'm a train-toot with my mouth full of mouths, and today we're going to go around how to face failure.
I talked to you the other day about confidence, responsibility, success, etc... Du Du did not say how to face the problem of failure.
My current state is also in a stage of entrepreneurial failure, and debt, the conditions at home are not very good, so I want to fight a little famous, unfortunately, too much overestimation of their own ability, a mess of loss, I have been in a deep self-blame, I am afraid, do not dare to toss again, I am afraid of repeating the same mistakes, this life will never turn over. However, I am determined to pluck up the courage to start the journey again, because of a book, because of an article, because of the relief of my deep-seated worries, I believe that I can and will succeed. Today I come to share with every friend who has failed in entrepreneurship, do not be depressed, life will not spare anyone because of frustration, after all, this era is very fair.

Let's look at how The 7th of Rockefeller's 38 Letters to His Son faced failure: "You need to know that everyone in this world does not have a smooth life; on the contrary, they must always live next to failure." Perhaps because there are too many helpless failures in this world, the pursuit of excellence has become full of charm, making people compete to chase, even at the cost of their lives. Even so, failure still comes.
Our fate remains the same. It's just that unlike some people, I treat failure as a glass of spirits, swallowing bitterness and spitting out spirit.
As I swore my way into the business world and knelt down to pray to God for the blessing of our new company, a catastrophic storm hit us. At that time, we signed a contract to buy a large number of beans, ready to make a big profit, but we did not expect that a sudden "visiting" frost shattered our dreams, half of the beans were destroyed, and the unscrupulous suppliers also mixed sand and small bean leaves and bean straws. This is destined to be a smashing business. But I know that I can't be depressed, and I can't be immersed in failure, otherwise, I will be farther and farther away from my goals and dreams.
There is no free lunch in the world, it is impossible to maintain the status quo, if it is static, it is a regression, but to move forward, you must be willing to make decisions and take risks. After that business failed, I borrowed money from my father again, though reluctantly. And, to make ourselves operationally superior, I told my partner, Mr. Clark, that we had to promote ourselves and let our potential clients know through newspaper ads that we could make large advances and supply large quantities of produce in advance.
As a result, courage and diligence saved us, and in that year, instead of being affected by the "bean incident", we made us a considerable net profit. ”
Yes, no one can live this life smoothly, failure is the state of long-term companionship with us, why should we feel that we have completely failed because of one or two times?

We go on to look down: "Everyone hates failure, but once avoiding failure becomes your motivation for doing things, you are on the path of laziness and powerlessness." It was terrible, even a disaster. Because this indicates that people may lose the opportunities that they might otherwise have.
Son, opportunities are rare things, people are rich because of opportunities, look at the poor people, you know, they are not incompetent stupid, they are not not hardworking, they are suffering from no chance. You need to know that we live in a jungle where you either eat people or are not eaten by others, and escaping risk is almost guaranteeing bankruptcy; and when you take advantage of opportunities, you are depriving others of their opportunities and guaranteeing yourself.
If you are afraid of failure, you dare not take risks, and if you do not dare to take risks, you will miss the opportunity in front of you. So, my son, in order to avoid losing opportunities and keeping the competition qualified, it is worth it to pay for failures and setbacks!
Failure is the beginning of a journey to a higher status. I can say that I can have today's achievements, step on the spiral ladder of failure, rise in failure. I am a smart "loser", I know to learn from failure, learn from the experience of failure, and use means I did not think of to create a new career. So I want to say,
My motto is: People must always be energetic, always strong, persevering, no matter what kind of failures and setbacks they encounter, this is the only thing I can do. I myself can understand what I do to make myself happy, what is worth serving my life for. The fundamental expectation, like a broom in a cleaner's hand, will sweep away all the rubbish on your path to success. Son, where are your own fundamental expectations? As long as you don't lose it, success will come.
Optimistic people will see opportunities in suffering, and pessimistic people will see suffering in opportunities. Son, remember the formula for success that I am so convinced:
Dream + Failure + Challenge = The Way to Success. ”
Every road to success always has the shadow of failure, whenever we fail, we may as well ask ourselves, do we really want to succeed? Really want to? Do you have to? If your answer is firm, how did these failures defeat you? Stand up and do it again, the ending may not be perfect, but the harvest will go hand in hand. Once not, then again and again, I hope, we can really be like the signature written: Hello in the future, I can't knock down. The sentence of the line has a great inspiration for me, it is important not to get used to failure, failure is also a good thing! Ha ha!
Let's continue: "Of course, failure has its lethality, it can make people weak, decadent, lose morale and willpower. What matters is what you see failure as. The genius inventor, Mr. Thomas Edison, had done more than ten thousand experiments before illuminating Mr. Morgan's office with an electric lamp, and in his case failure was the field of success.
Ten years ago, a young reporter from the New York Sun interviewed him, and the young man who had learned from the world asked him: "Mr. Edison, your current invention has failed ten thousand times. Edison was so unused by the word failure that he told the reporter in an elderly tone, "Young man, your journey in life has only just begun, so I'm telling you a revelation that will be very helpful for your future, I haven't failed ten thousand times, I've just invented ten thousand ways that don't work." "The power of the spirit is always so great.
Son, if you declare spiritual bankruptcy, you will lose everything. You need to know that man's career is like a tidal wave, and if you step on the wave, fame follows; and if you miss it, you will be trapped in shoals and sorrow for the rest of your life. Failure is a learning experience, and you can turn it into a tombstone or a stepping stone.
Without challenge, there is no success, don't stop because of a failure, defeat yourself, you are the biggest winner! ”
In this passage, I like one of Edison's favorite words: "I haven't failed ten thousand times, I've just invented ten thousand ways that don't work." It was also this sentence that ignited my new hope, yes, failure is not terrible, every failure is to verify a method that does not work, this method, will avoid more detours for my next battle, what a rare situation, why give up?
Failure is a confirmation of a mistake, for the right path to success has made an outstanding contribution, although we are all caused by our own hands, but every failure is to get closer to success. I personally believe that to fear failure is to refuse success! Come on, end of class!
Come on
Circumvent the motto:
As long as it doesn't become a habit, failure is a good thing.
When you take advantage of opportunities, you are depriving others of their opportunities and securing yourself.
Once avoiding failure becomes your motivation to do things, you are on the path of laziness and powerlessness.
I haven't failed ten thousand times, I've just invented ten thousand ways that don't work.
