Failure is the word by which a person is easily intimidated. It is one of the scariest nightmares of human beings all over the world. They try to avoid it as much as possible as they fear failure. It is something that is easily transmitted as well. For example, if a family's head has the fear of failure he or she is going to pass on this fear to their children. Unconsciously, but still they are ruining their generations. A lot of parents all around the world teach their children that failure is something unacceptable as it is the end. For suppose, a child fails his or her test the parents react emotionally, they talk harshly and try to impose that failure is something intolerable and unsatisfactory thus creating fear among their children.
When a person fears that he might fail, he works hard. The anxiety that what the outcome will be in the future affects today’s performance and might end up in loss. The pressure that no matter what they have to succeed, increases the stress level and they might not be able to handle the pressure which may end into failure. People think how it will be to fail and what will be the embarrassment of it. They think about what they have not gone through yet.
If you look at it scientifically, it is not good for health as well. The desire to succeed can make your mental health unstable. Overthinking and anxiety are not good for health as well. Unfortunately, if you fail in some aspect of your life you might end in depression because you have been taught that failure means the end. Fearing about something that you cannot predict and is out of control is useless. A lot of people have failed but are successful today. Because they used their failures as the building blocks to their success. If you talk about it failure is not something to be afraid of, try to learn from them, use them to innovate, and enhance yourself.
"Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is a delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing." - Denis Waitley
Always remember you cannot achieve success on your first try.
"Everything you want is on the other side of fear." - Jack Canfield
You cannot achieve everything in your life and you cannot ignore failure throughout your journey of life.
“Success is most often achieved by those who do not know that failure is inevitable.” Coco Chanel
Who does not want to get success? Who loves failure? One of the gravest mistakes of mankind is that they cherish victory and fear failure. They do not know that one of the most important keys to success is to be ready to get failed and seize every possible benefit of failure. The book, Go and See, rightly suggests that if you do not fear failure you might get a victory. But fear of failure, the fear of something uncertain makes human being hesitate. The fear makes them think twice before they take a step towards their aim.
