　　It’s almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kind of failure. People

　　who do so probably live so cautiously that they go nowhere. Put simply, they're not really living at

　　all. But, the wonderful thing about failure is that it's entirely up to us to decide how to look at it.

　　We can choose to see failure as “the end of the world,” or as proof of just how inadequate we

　　are. Or, we can look at failure as the incredible learning experience that it often is. Every time we

　　fail at something. we can choose to look for the lesson we’re meant to learn. These lessons are

　　very important, they’re how we grow, and how we keep from making that same mistake again.

　　Failures stop us only if we let them.

　　Failure can also teach us things about ourselves that we would never have learned otherwise.

　　For instance, failure can help you discover how strong a person you are. Failing at something can

　　help you discover your truest friends, or help you find unexpected motivation to succeed.
