My Success : Successure And Failure : The Achievements Of Success

Everyone has failed at something in their life. You might think that failure doesn't strengthen you at all, but it does. The three main reasons why failure strengthens you are that failure gives you room to improve, it helps you learn, and it helps you later in life.

I failed to reach the top of the rock climbing wall on the playground, and as a result, I have strived even harder to reach the peak of success in everything I do. Instead of becoming discouraged and disappointed in myself, I found a way to improve myself for my next challenge. Learning from my mistakes has molded me into an improved person while giving me the motivation to keep pushing forward. Failure has taught me the importance of learning from your errors and trying again, no matter how difficult it may be. Without lessons like these, I would not be the motivated, independent person that I am today. I will continue to fail and try again until I achieve my goal of reaching the

Success is a word that really hard to define, because everyone will have a different definition for this word. In fact, there no exact definition for the word "success". For a student, maybe the success means to pass all courses of the semester; for a business man, signing a importance contract and get a lot of money are successes; and for a president, leading the country to develop and make the people have a better life are success. For me, I also have my own definition for the word "success". When I was a kid, I really want to be a scientist, but after I become mature, my thinking has become more mature and my definition of success also

When I look at the word failure I didn’t see success. But that slowly changed as I read the book What the Best College Students Do by Ken Bain Chapter four. Bain, for me and I’m sure many other, have changed our view point on failure being a bad thing. He instead expressed failure as an “opportunity to learn something.” (121) As infants we grow and develop, we learn to walk by falling down a couple hundred times, and we learn to speak by babbling. By trying to walk, and trying to talk, we may fail at first. As an infant, you cannot give up when you are face to face with failure. You must get up and try again to learn. In the book, What the Best College Students Do by Ken Bain he uses people’s experiences and research to explain why failure is an opportunity to learn something new, rather than seeing failure as something bad. He asserts “people who become highly creative and productive learn to acknowledge failures, even to embrace them, and to explore and learn from them.” (100) Failure is important. If we did not get up and try again as infants, we would not be where we are today.

Failure allows people to grow and learn from their mistakes. Without failure I would have never been able to learn my true identity and overcome the adversity I had faced. I have faced failure in many forms and each time it affects me and I grow from it, progressing into someone who can defeat all obstacles. I have come to appreciate failure because it has developed me into the person I am today. There is one failure that truly affected me and it was when I was not accepted into the All State Choir.

Success can mean different things to different people. The definition of success can change for a person at different stages of their life. A person's culture, family, friends, experiences, and environment can be a big influence on defining what success is to that individual. We all hear the stories of people failing and failing until one day they make it to the top, beat the bad guy or pass the trial. The story can also go that they got all they desired or raised up from the ashes. All of these have one thing in common, it is at the end of the story. It's never the beginning or middle. It's always at the end of the story that the person succeeds in their quest. But why does it have to be at the end? Simply, like how there is no good without evil. You can not have succeed without struggling and failing first.

Failure is something that all people encounter in their lives. In some situations failure can break a person or make a person, meaning a person can fail at something and just simply give up. Others will fail and that failure can give them the inspiration to try harder to one day achieve their goal. I'm the type of person to fail and work harder until I am content. As my championship baseball coach would say "What’s our motto? Never give up!"

Failure can be a very difficult thing to cope with. It can be something that makes you or breaks you. I have learned that failure is what defines a person; it shows your motivation to bounce back when things get rough. I have learned from my failure instead of dwelling on it and making myself weaker.

In addition, the willingness to learn through failure can help to reach the desired destiny. Nearly everybody fears failing, because it has been associated with all sorts of negativity. Although an optimistic look on the other side of tripping or falling down in life can make someone to be successful in

In 1492 the Spanish being led by Christopher Columbus set voyage looking for a new trade route to Asia, instead he discovered the New World. This day is known as “Discovery Day.” Over the years, this day has evoked several different reactions. Parades and events have been cancelled in order to prevent a clash between participants and Native Americans. The conquest of the Americas was no longer being seen as a monumental success, but now being seen as the tragedy that occurred to reach that success.

Everyone has experienced failure before. Some people think there is no good side to disappointments. Failure and disappointments can help you grow a learn as a person. Tack Abraham Lincoln for example, he has had a lot of failures. He ran for state legislature and Congress, but he lost both, He also lost eight elections. He began a business but went bankrupt for a long time. With all these disappointments and failures, he still never gave up, but instead he learned from them. Lincoln ran for Congress and state legislature again and won! He might have learned what he did wrong the first time and improved it for the second time. He grew from his past mistakes.

These failures help make the person stronger and have a better outlook on their

When people talked about the leaders of some famous companies, they firmly believed that these leaders leadership talent is born. In the book “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success”, Carol S. Dweck discussed the fix mindset and growth mindset how to affect themes such as sports, business, relationships, and parents. Leaders with fixed mindset feel that they are superman or a genius, consider that employee who has more ability be more useful than the person who work hard and want to grow. Also, they also believe their company will not be defeated and replace. On the other side, leaders with a growth mindset preferred many people can become an excellent leader by hard-working and learn how to select people: for their mindset, not their pedigrees. Although both mindsets can make a leader successful, the growth mindset person gained more success in business, since they have true self-confidence and think they are not excellent but try their best to learn, credit and nurture. They also know how to use feedback to strengthen their leadership and arrange the company 's employees appropriately. In the teamwork, they will work to solve the problem with staff quickly. They notice their improvement in their employees on the management side and also believe themselves can be educated in negotiation abilities.

Traditionally, failure is seen as a negative concept and is defined as lacking success. I, on the other hand, try to put a positive spin on everything in life. I see failure as an obstacle that is experienced by all, but it does not define an individual. Failure in essence will force an individual to be more receptive to their surroundings and actions and also will force an individual to mature. Looking back on my childhood years I can now pinpoint the areas where I failed and I can confidently say that I have grown and prospered due to those failures. The three major failures I have experienced were my attention deficit issues which affected my ability to succeed in school, my anti-social habit that I let consume my early years, and my

Success is something that most of us want to achieve in our life. The definition of success may differs and varies among each and everyone of us. Nevertheless, we all have something that we want to achieve in our lifetime, and that is the most basic definition of success. However, most people do not realize that to succeed, they must overcome countless failures and obstacles. This speaks truth for a close friend of mine; hence, she always looks down on herself. My friend currently participates in SCC tennis team, where she always complain about how bad she is, and everyone else is virtually better than her. Whenever she loses games, she will blame herself instead of seeing those failures as a spring to help her becomes a better tennis player. Katty Kay and Claire Shipman, authors of an article called The Confidence Gap describe this as “internal attribution” where which people associate failure with their inability to do better (Kay and Shipman 26). Instead of look for other reasons such as not everyone is in the same tennis level or the opponent simply has more experience and practice. This lead to the question of how can most people achieve their goal if most of the time all they see is a future full of failures and obstacles? People who are successful know how to overcome failures and posses character traits that help them continue to have a successful life.
