The key to success, often, is failure.

Often, one will learn more from failure, than from success.

Failure doesn’t mean that I failed,

It just means that I haven’t succeeded just yet.

Failure doesn’t mean that I have accomplished nothing, it does mean that I have learned something.

Failure doesn’t mean I was a fool to try,

It means I was brave to envision.

Failure doesn’t mean that I have failed,

It does mean that it will take me longer.

Failure doesn’t mean that I am finished,

It does mean that I have another chance to start over.

Failure doesn’t mean that the Universe abandoned me, it does mean that it has a better plan for me.

I will beat failure with family, friends, faith, freedom, focus and follow through.

And in the end, I know I will say:

“Thank you – failure.

For you have helped me succeed.”
