Its about how we handle failure.
Failure is an inevitable part of life. No matter how talented or driven you are, there will be times when you fall short of your goals. While success stories are often celebrated, it is essential to discuss the impact of failure and how it shapes our lives.
let's give my example here. Well i phase lots of failures in career but usually i overcome of it. but this one i want to talk about. " i am working in Amazon Web Service(AWS) from last 1 year. and i have interest into that. so there are some official certificates from AWS side. if want to certified. and AWS Solution architect is one of them. Obviously its hard. so i decided to take the exam i and schedule in one month . in that duration i prepare say and night giving mocks and i am confident ki i will crack exam. well on D-Day i gave the exam and result will come after one day.
the thing is i tought i will crack it and according to that i planned other activities like if i pass . i will there, i do this n that , blahhh blahhh. but irony is that ki i didnt passed. In fact my score is very near to crack it. but its not pass.
now its on how i take this forward in different way and identify mistakes.
Failure can take many forms, from not achieving a desired outcome to making a significant mistake. It can happen in any area of our lives, whether it's personal or professional. Failure can be painful and embarrassing, but it can also be a powerful learning experience.
One of the most significant benefits of failure is that it helps us develop resilience. When we experience setbacks, we have to find ways to cope and move forward. We learn that we can survive disappointment and come out stronger on the other side. Failure also teaches us to be more humble, to acknowledge our limitations, and to seek help when we need it.
The fear of failure can be a significant barrier to success. If we are so afraid of failing that we don't even try, we limit our potential. It's essential to remember that failure is not the end of the world. It's an opportunity to learn, grow, and try again.
RAY DALIO saying, " When we fail, it's crucial to take some time to reflect on what went wrong and what we can do differently next time. It's easy to blame external factors or other people for our failures, but it's much more productive to take responsibility for our actions and look for ways to improve."
Ray Dalio is an excellent example of someone who has achieved more through embracing failure. He is the founder of Bridgewater Associates, one of the world's largest and most successful hedge funds. However, he has also experienced his fair share of failures.
One notable example is when his firm lost $4 billion during the 2008 financial crisis. Rather than giving up, Dalio used the experience as an opportunity to learn and grow. He conducted a thorough analysis of what went wrong, identified areas for improvement, and adjusted his approach accordingly.
As a result, Bridgewater Associates emerged even stronger from the crisis, and Dalio's personal net worth increased. He credits his success to his willingness to embrace failure and learn from it. He even wrote a book called "Principles" that outlines his philosophy of radical transparency, which encourages people to be honest about their mistakes and learn from them.
In some cases, failure can lead to even greater success. Many successful people have experienced significant setbacks and failures before achieving their goals. They learned from their mistakes, adjusted their approach, and persisted until they succeeded.
its upto us how we handle that failure result we taking forward from that or we give up.
