“Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.”
These are words of wisdom from the legendary footballer PELE.
In the real world, it’s important to decipher what is Failure and what is Success
Success is one when one achieves one’s targeted goal or milestone. Success is not about defeating anyone, success is surely not about pulling someone down, and success is never about shaming someone, who has not made it, yet.
Success is all about being better, even better, or being the best version of oneself. Improving day after day, every day, even though the quantum of positive change may be minuscule.
Thus reaching one’s peak potential in true terms is called Success.
What is a failure then?
Failure is nothing but the process of reaching Success. The constant tries, the series of improvements, the sequence of improvisations accompanied by a scenario where one has NOT YET reached the desired goals or targets or milestones, is known as Failure.
Failure enables one to improve, sometimes pivot, sometimes change, and sometimes modify not the goal but the path.
