Failing and Failure
“There’s a difference between ‘failing’ and ‘failure.’ Failing is a natural possibility anytime someone does something, does anything. It doesn’t matter how great or how small the thing is – there’s always a chance we can fail. When we fail, and we will, a choice must be made. How a person responds to failing determines what happens next. If a person learns and grows, continuing forward on their journey, failing has been a temporary pit stop along the road to success. If a person refuses to learn and grow, giving up and stopping their journey, they take up permanent residence along the road to success, but never arrive. That is failure.” – Greg Taunt
