WHY WE FAIL AND HOW WE CAN UTILIZE FAILURE
Successful people will admit to having their fair share of failure.
A lot of people will admit to having failed at a point in their lives. Anytime we fail, there are lessons to be learnt. There are reasons why we fail.
It is very important to notice the reasons why you failed so you can make a strong rebound to prevent the same mistakes.
According to Shiv Khera, author of You Can Win.
Failures most often occur for one of seven reasons. Each failure we experience in life teaches us something valuable and can lead us to something great.
Here are some of the common reasons why people fail.
1. They Don't Believe
When you fail, you have to convince your mind that you failed. You can only take lessons from failure after you believed that you have failed. We learn more when we accept that we have been defeated.
The human brain operates via a multitude of feedback loops and what matters in the feedback loop is the input. This means you must convince and accept that you failed a task so that the mind can tune in a way that will make you prepared to success.
2. Lack of Persistence
One main reason why people fail is because they lack persistence. They could have all the resources including knowledge but yet, they fail.Ask yourself why? It is because they give up too soon.
You must be committed to what you really want in life and find ways or methods until you get your desired results.
Thomas Edison failed 10,000 times before he made a breakthrough for the invention of the light bulb. All he had to do was to persist by changing his approach and making small adjustments until he reached his goals.
3. Dismissal of Past Mistakes
Most people tend to forget about the mistakes they committed in the past. They do not take lessons from the mistakes they committed in the past by repeating the same mistakes over and over.
Failure is a teacher only if we have the right attitude.
Wise people do not only acknowledge their mistakes but also learn from it.
4. They Lack Discipline
Discipline makes people accomplish worthy goals. Discipline involves self- control, sacrifice and avoidance of temptations.
It means you must be focused.
State your goals clearly and give it a %100 commitment. Breaking down your plans into daily achievable actions will help you to stay on track.
5. Low Self Esteem
People who have low esteem have lack of self respect and self worth. More often, they are trying to find who they are instead of creating for themselves who they want to be.
We have all faced tough challenges in our lives but if you keep on dwelling in your past and feel sorry for yourself, then you might find it difficult to climb the success ladder. Your moments are only going to get worse.
Imaginations is part of human nature. You may have imagined your life to be great but it is not as you thought it to be due some failures. Keep in mind that,you only fail in life when you stop trying.
6.Fatal Attitude
People who have fatal attitude do not accept responsibilities for their positions in life. To them, happiness and failures is just a matter of chance.
They live themselves in the hands of fate and say to themselves, whatever happens should happen.
To deal with this, look in the mirror and say to yourself, i am in charge. Once you begin to accept responsibilities in your life, you begin to realize changes.
We are blessed with the ability to control our own thoughts and decide the actions we take in life. Take responsibility of your life and you will start experiencing happiness and success.

I have been watching, and you post a lot of quality content. This is no exception. In the past few years I admit that I was failing as a writer. For a long time I have wanted to be an author but I was not producing anything. I would go into year long dry spells and I would make excuses for failing to write. #2 "Lack of Persistence" was my biggest obstacle to overcome, and it will continue to be an obstacle if I let it. We could all take a lesson from you in this department. Persistence pays off. Keep up the good work.
Thanks pal...
I'm also not much of a writer.... But I believe that everything you put your mind to the can be achieved- those who who write ain't super humans
#5 was going against me but knowing ur failure helps a lot.
