Failure- The key to Success

"Failure is the key to success. Once you fail, you learn the weaknesses in you, and you learn to tackle it"

Oxford dictionary defined failure as - lack of success in doing or achieving something. What I find naive here is that civilization used the direct definition of failure. Usually, our civilization look at the so call failure in another face.

A few days ago I saw in a TED talk, a speaker saying that not setting a goal is the seed of failure. Well, that might seem so correct. But what I find here is that what he said needs a little bit of correction. Well, when we don't set a goal that's not the seed of failure. Because we call it failure only when we don't succeed in our goal. So, failure comes only after we set up a goal and we don't succeed. Shall we then conclude here, setting a goal is the seed of loss? 

What happens when we fail?

Many people as conventional might account for failure as the disastrous or the final. Do this when everything seems to be completely going against you. When every one of your ways seems to be set on fire. When everything doesn't work for you. Just hold on for one second. Take a deep breath. Relax, hope, and believe that something is still waiting for you on the other side. Something good gonna come for you soon. Something which you crazily love and has been eagerly waiting for will come. Just take heart. Don't complain. Don't completely lose yourself.

Fail leads to disappointment, dissatisfaction, heartbreak, complete chaos, discouragement, fear, etc. The list goes on, it never ends. But there's a huge difference between the optimistic and pessimistic person. An optimistic person usually doesn't take any of the matters negatively related to the failure.
