If you try, you risk failure. If you don’t, you ensure it.

A quote that has motivated me many times in my life. It is better to attempt and fail than not to try at all. Unless you overcome your fear of failure, you will do nothing significant. However, that is the most difficult first step that anyone must take to achieve their goals.

Have you ever had to confront your fear of failure?

I confronted it many times.

I failed in many phases. But I am happy that atleast I tried.

@Bleak When you try despite the odds, even if you fail, your inner core becomes stronger and bolder. In the long run, this is crucial.

@Renkon Though I realized late that I was not a loser 🙂

@Bleak That's good of you. You only loose when you choose to.

You have to know which risks to take. Some are better at that then others.

@Jonjdw Calculated risk? But we have to take at least some, right?

Jonjdw · 46-50, M

@Renkon I think so. In ways every day is a risk.

A successful person will fail 1,000 times, a quitter will try only once.

@NativePortlander1970 So true.
