Who does not dream of success? However, as you move on, there will be many times when you have to face failure. Failure often makes you alone where you need to wage a lonely war against all odds. The way you deal with the situation is a litmus test of how good and strong your personality is. You can either run away, use temporary ways to tide over the crisis or use the failure as a creative opportunity to assess and evaluate the faults you have committed. Yes, by understanding that you have erred and it can be corrected, you are waking up to a better, deeper understanding of the situations and of yourself.
If one acts gracefully during success, it is not a big deal. But when one gracefully keeps himself afloat during failures, it shows his character. Coping up well with failures moulds our characters better. It teaches us how to accept with biases and fight with whatever weapons we have. It makes us respect the world for its non-predictability even as believing in our mind’s power to win it. Contemplating on men and circumstances will provide us with a deep insight, which would help us mould our character and personality. So, embrace failures. They are good.
