Failure cannot stop you

Failure happens to you only when you let it. And you never have to let it.

An unintended result is a failure only when you see it as a failure. Choose instead to see it as a valuable step toward success.

Then choose to take the next step. You’ll take it with more experience, more determination, more focus and higher expectations.

Setbacks and disappointments occur all the time. But failure occurs only when there is no persistence.

Commit to keep going and failure cannot stop you. Keep going, and no matter how far you fall, you have not failed.

Get back up, go back to work, fix what is broken, adapt to the changes, make another effort. And you’ll never be burdened with failure.

— Ralph Marston
