failure

May 21, 2010 1 comment

failure does not exist to pull you down. it exists because it serves as something you can learn in life.

someone told me, the difference between trying and failing, and not trying and failing is that at least you get something out of it when you try. failing doesnt mean the end of the world. i think everyone knows that failing is part and parcel of life. but a lot of people don’t seem to want to take out the pint where they learn. tonight i figured out that to be successful, to even suceed in one idea of yours, it will take 999 crappy ideas before you can come out with one good idea.

and when that idea comes, i wont want to share it with the whole world. because the world is like an idea eating monster thats constantly hungry. you share your idea, 7 out of 10 people will tell you its terrible. 2 out of ten wont even bother commenting, only 1 will be interested in it. only one will have enough faith in you to tell you, “hey, that was a good idea. i believe in you” and that one, will be someone close to you, someone who understands you. thats your friend.

its easy to put someone down. its easy to tell him that his idea sucks. it easy to tell someone, “dude, sure cannot one, you sure will cui one”. being honest is good. but there’s an art to being honest, and bringing your point across nicely.

i say we should stop doing these put people down nonsense. start understanding that failures are part of life, AND learn from our failures.
