SIX QUOTES TO INSPIRE YOU TO TURN FAILURE INTO SUCCESS

Failure can be tough to take. You may have been rejected for a job you really wanted, or a promotion you went all out for. It can make you question your value in the workplace and lead you to question your skill set and self-worth. Sometimes, the negative emotions that stem from failure can have an ongoing impact on your mental and physical health.

So, it can be useful to remember that failure can have a positive outcome. Here are six quotes to inspire you to turn failure into success from names you may well recognise.

  • “The only failure is not to try.” —George Clooney

Opportunities don’t just happen; you create them and take them. And sometimes – yes – they do end in failure. But on other occasions, they may lead to the successful outcome you were striving to achieve. If you don’t try, you won’t succeed.

  • “A champion is not defined by their wins but by how they can recover when they fall.” —Serena Williams

Bouncing back from failure is essential, even if you feel everything is stacked against you. Top sportspeople set an excellent example. There can only be one winner in a game of singles tennis.

  • “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” —Thomas Edison

It can take persistence to succeed in the face of failure. Keep going and you may find that you land that job or promotion.

  • “Failure is the condiment that gives success its flavour.” —Truman Capote

You can’t fully appreciate the taste of success unless you have also sampled failure. It’s a vital ingredient in the recipe, not something to leave out of the mix.

  • “A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.” —Winston Churchill

Your mindset counts. How you approach a situation can make the difference between success and failure.

  • “Keep your face always towards the sunshine – and shadows will fall behind you.” —Walt Whitman

Words that paint a positive picture for you to carry in your head and inspire you to always look on the bright side.

Success and failure often go hand in hand. The secret is staying positive when things don’t go the way you had hoped or planned – and believing that next time may be brighter and better.
