Success stories
are commonly normal. We get to hear
plenty of them from different people in our everyday life. They are always featured on television,
newspapers, and magazines. We are proud
to talk and discuss about them for they bring inspiration to us. They create positivity and stir our inner
beings with good vibes. As a whole,
success stories are important because they give us hope in striving to have a
better life.
But had it ever
occurred in our minds that before attaining success, there are failures along
the way? We had always been so focused
with the success and we didn’t see what’s behind it. We “fail” to acknowledge the very heart of
our success which enables us to learn and toil more to get what we were aiming
for. This is the seven-letter most distasteful
word, F-A-I-L-U-R-E.
Failure is a
state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective as
Wikipedia defines it. It is falling
short into doing something, a lack of success!
It is fearsome but inevitable. Since
there are success stories, there must also be failure stories. This may be a taboo to some people for the
reason of pessimism, but let’s try to accept it.
Wouldn’t it be
nice to hear a failure story that leads to a very great success? We could get life lessons from it on how to
be patient and to persevere in times of testing. It could lighten the burdens we are carrying
by understanding that what we are going through is also experienced by the
others. Truly, success without failures is
nothing. It’s not what we get and where
we are at but it is how we get there matters.
Furthermore, “Try and try until you die!” is an
already worn-out motto. This just proves
that failures occur before attaining success.
So let’s not be hypocrites in not discussing failures. They are ought to be recognized and be
heard. They are ought to be treated
equally with success. Like success
stories, let us also treat failure stories as inspirational in order for us not
to become EPIC FAILS!
