Failure is a tough subject to speak about, but did you know that we all must go though some type of failure in order to reach success. Only the extremely lucky or the extremely gifted persons try something, see it through and succeed on the first attempt. For the most part people have to do something over and over again in order to really succeed and be recognized with what you are doing. For example a singer who has a good voice may sound good because they have practiced a particular type of song, but as soon as the singer is thrown into another genre or style of song they may choke. Practice takes a lot of effort and it really helps to get the help you need from the right people. A singing coach or a blogging mentor or a tennis instructor might get you from novice to expert with time, patience, and dedication. I ask you now; How many times have you failed?
So back to the failure mantra that I am trying to espouse on you. We all are good at something in life, but if we do not attempt to try things and fail then we will never know what that thing is. Like the good singer who is scared to go on the X-Factor or American Idol auditions. The young person who likes to run, but has too much pride to try out for the high school track team.
When was the last time you said to yourself, at least I tried to do it. Failure is not the end of the world, because guess what, you can always improve or try again. When fear gets the best of you, how will the world know the best you can be? Think about the last sentence you just read for a moment.
Now tell me will this inspire you to find something you want to do, whether it may be career wise, entrepreneurial wise, financial wise, or any of the million ideas that might pop into your head that you want to share with the world.
