(from the newsletter)
There are no failures, only lessons. We either win or we learn.
I don’t know who to attribute this aphorism to. There are many iterations of this idea spoken by any number of influential people.
Nelson Mandela might come closest with: “I never lose. I either win or learn.”
It’s a worthy endeavor, I think, to reframe the “failures” we experience as lessons—ways to grow, markers to gauge improvement, milestones on our journey. Because if we try and fail at something, but we learn something new to apply to next time (in that the failure could eventually lead to a success), is it even failing?
Really?
Be Brilliant!
