I remind my children often that true failure isn't making the mistake, but rather giving up!
Be a person who doesn’t give up! Let me write that again: Be a person who doesn’t give up.
Thomas Edison is one of the most significant innovators and inventors in American history. Edison is perhaps best known for inventing the first long-lasting light bulb. Edison’s 10,000 attempts to create the light bulb must be remembered.
If you’re not failing, you’re not trying.
He was a leader of many other breakthroughs, including the first phonograph (sound) and the motion picture camera (video), and he was influential in developing the first economically viable way of distributing light, heat, and power from a central station.
Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is 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
When you find yourself failing; making a poor decision; saying the wrong thing; remind yourself after the event to NOT GIVE UP! Remember, you have the ability to innovate, to think differently about a situation. If you’re not failing, you’re not trying.
2 Cor 12:9 “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
