Emfographics Failure is a stepping stone to success  

Coaching by Example

There is no such word as 'setback' in my vocabulary.

There is a current situation and the vision of the desired future I want to create. Now, I must invent the next great step towards my noble vision.

and an enemy of a homo emotional.

Noble failure provides a great learning opportunity and should be viewed as a very lifeblood of success.

  Best success quotes Failure is a teacher Vadim Kotelnikov Dennis Most Useful Dictionary

 

 

"Although most people hate to be labeled a failure and love to be labeled a success, it is only through seeming failure that most of life's greatest successes are achieved. Usually, "failure" or "success" is almost entirely in the eye of the beholder... Failure is very often a misperception about the difference between what exists and goes unnoticed (such as growth and learning when we fall short of reaching a goal) and what is realized later (longer term success)," writes Charles C. Manz, the author of The Power of Failure.
