“Falling down is not failure. Failure comes when you stay where you have fallen.”
– Socrates
Making mistakes or experiencing setbacks in life is not a failure in itself. The true failure comes when we do not learn from our mistakes and do not make an effort to get back up and try again.
We should view mistakes and failures as opportunities for growth and learning. It is important to not give up when we encounter obstacles or setbacks but instead to persevere and keep moving forward towards our goals.
Staying stuck in a negative situation or mindset is what truly constitutes failure. By refusing to get back up and make an effort to improve our situation, we are essentially giving up and resigning ourselves to failure.
Remember that making mistakes and experiencing setbacks are a natural part of life, and that it is important to not view them as failures in themselves. Rather, the true failure comes from giving up and not making an effort to learn from our mistakes and move forward towards our goals.
