Success and Failure: The two sides of a Coin

BLOGGERS_HOME

Welcome to Bloggershome91, today we are going to discuss Success and Failure: The two sides of a coin.





Success, it is like soaring over the clouds, higher and higher. It is as pleasant as a cool breeze in the summer evenings or like the warm sunshine in the winters. But what is failure? Is it like falling down from a cliff? Let us try to answer these questions. Should we consider failure so negative and depressing? I'd rather say that Success and Failure are just the two sides of a coin and we should accept both as they occur in life. "The waves rise on the ocean and there is a hollow. Again another wave rises perhaps bigger than the former to fall down; similarly, again to rise-driving onward. In the march of events, we notice the rise and the fall and we generally look towards the rise, forgetting the fall. But both are necessary and both are great. This is the nature of the universe. Hence great predominance in the march of events, the liberal ideas are marshalled ahead, to sink down, to digest, as it were, to ruminate over the past -to adjust, to conserve, to gather once more for a rise, a bigger rise."-Swami Vivekananda


Some failure in life is inevitable. It is impossible to live without something unless you are cautious that you may as well not have lived at all in which case you fail by default. You might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as the desire for success. We must always remember that no great success was ever achieved without failure. Thomas A. Edison had created some thousands of bulbs before he could design one which actually emitted light. The phoenix must burn to emerge. Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. We fail only when we stop trying.
