20 Quotes To Help You Never Feel Like A Failure Again by lampardizik(m): 11:56pm On Sep 06, 2014
Imagine if you never felt afraid of failing again?

What dreams would you go for? What limitations and
barriers would you smash through? In what ways
would your life be any different to the way it is today?
Failure is an inevitable part of life; if we didn’t
stumble and fall from time to time, how would we
ever have the opportunity to learn and grow as
individuals?
If you’re not prone to failing and are yet
to fail at anything, then this isn’t something to
celebrate. It simply means that you haven’t dreamed
big enough yet. It means that you are yet to step
outside of your comfort zone, to put yourself out there
in an effort to achieve or to be something truly great.
If your fear of failure is so big, that you’re too afraid
to try for anything that you really want, then look no
further.

Below you will find 20 quotes that will show
you that failure is nothing to fear at all, but instead,
something to embrace – and even celebrate!


Read on, and redefine the way you think about
failure.

something. But I can’t accept not trying.’ –

not realize how close they were to success
when they gave up.’ – Thomas Edison

5. ‘Don’t be afraid to fail. Don’t waste energy
trying to cover up failure. Learn from your
failures and go on to the next challenge. It’s ok
to fail. If you’re not failing, you’re not
growing.’ – H. Stanley Judd

6. ‘You’ll always miss 100% of the shots you
don’t take.’ – Wayne Gretzky

7. ‘Remember that failure is an event, not a
person.’ – Zig Ziglar

8. ‘Forget about the consequences of failure.
Failure is only temporary change in direction
to set you straight for your next success.’ –

9. ‘I really don’t think life is about the I-could-
have-beens. Life is only about the I-tried-to-
do. I don’t mind the failure but I can’t imagine
that I’d forgive myself if I didn’t try.’ – Nikki
Giovanni

10. ‘Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the
most important tool I’ve ever encountered to
help me make the big choices in life. Because
almost everything – all external expectations,
all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure
– these things just fall away in the face of
death, leaving only what is truly important.’ –
Steve Jobs

have tried to succeed.’ – Theodore Roosevelt

failure.’ – Bill Gates

stepping stone. Close the door on the past.

don’t dwell on it. You don’t let it have any of
your energy, or any of your time, or any of
your space.’ – Johnny Cash

16. ‘Failure happens all the time. It happens
every day in practice. What makes you better
is how you react to it.’ – Mia Hamm

Failure is only the opportunity to more
intelligently begin again.’ – Henry Ford
