How not to fail
Today, I wanted to take a moment to discuss an important topic: Failure.
What is failure? It is defined as that moment when you quit working toward your goal. For whatever reason you decide that you've had enough and quit. Now there may be times that you need to quit, but I see the real failures as those who were working towards a goal, and for whatever reason decide to quit, even though there was nothing standing in their way from achieving those goals. A lot of times "failure" is created in our mind.
Thomas Edison "failed" over 1000 times before he invented the lightbulb. Did he give up? No! In fact he said that he considered those "failures" as steps to get to his goal. So every-time you feel like quitting, look up at that lightbulb and remember Thomas Edison. Keep forging ahead, and go crush your goal!

Hi Anthony,
You are so right about what is failure. My little motto for "dark" times I cannot fail because I will not quit.
Thanks for re-enforcing good thoughts.
