I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life, and that is why I succeed. - Michael Jordan

Inspirational quote of the day by Michael Jordan.

It can be debilitating and demoralising when all the hard work you have put in leads to failure. "I'm a failure", "I'm not cut out for this", "I'm no good" are common thoughts when we encounter failure.

Recognise, however, that failure is a normal stepping stone on your path to achieving success. All successful people have encountered failure along the way.

Think of failure as an opportunity to learn from your mistakes and improve your skills. Each failure you overcome makes you stronger, more resilient, and moves you one step closer to your goal.

Do not let your fear of failure prevent you from taking action. Learn from it, and keep moving forward until you succeed.
