Failure Is A Myth?

Failure Is A Myth?

Failure is a myth, did you know that?

I mean, sure, I guess there are a few ways you can “fail.”

You can fail to win a race.

And you can fail at something that only gives you one chance, like certain tests.

But that is not a failure in the sense I am talking about.

Take blogging.

There is no such thing as a failed blogger. There is only a blogger that quits.

And there is no such thing as a failed musician. There is only a musician that quits.

See the difference?

“Never fear failure—failure is a myth. Failure exists only for those who quit. You don’t quit.“

-Andy Andrews, The Seven Decisions
