Hi, Neat post. There’s a problem with your site in internet explorer, might test this? IE still is the market chief and a large component of folks will leave out your magnificent writing because of this problem.

Hi Brandon,

Robert Kiyosaki says the same thing about learning from mistakes, and that mistakes are our greatest teachers. The thing about the truly successful is that they aren’t afraid of taking calculated risk and making mistakes. What hinders so many is that the fear of mistakes keeps them from really trying.

No problem… and I’m pretty sure it’s half-full!

So true, Brandon. Accepting failure, not matter your place in life is difficult, but like everything else it’s about your outlook on things. Is the glass half empty or half full?

Thanks for another great post, Brandon.

That’s a good quote – “It’s good to fail so you know how good it feels to win.” Excellent point!

I couldn’t agree with you more – I’m glad I found this, I always get the sense I need to improve and thank myself I do – I think this mentality is good in balance

We definitely learn a whole lot more from our mistakes than success – as long as the overall trend is towards success – the success we have defined

As they say its good to fail so you know how good it feels to win

thanks Brandon

I do in the video and here – that to “fail” is to make a mistake from which we can learn to improve ourselves.

define “fail”…

That’s an excellent point, and success would also be harder to define if not for the backdrop of failure.
