Refuse to Accept Failure!
Sir Edmund Hillary was the first man to climb Mount Everest. On May 29, 1953 he
scaled the highest mountain then known to man -29,000 feet straight up. He was
knighted for his efforts. He even made American Express card commercials because
of it! However, until we read his book, High Adventure, we don't understand that
Hillary had to grow into this success.
You see, in 1952 he attempted to climb Mount Everest, but failed. A few weeks
later a group in England asked him to address its members. Hillary walked on stage
to a thunderous applause. The audience was recognizing an att empt at greatness,
but Edmund Hillary saw himself as a failure. He moved away from the microphone and
walked to the edge of the platform. He made a fist and pointed at a picture of the
mountain. He said in a loud voice, "Mount Everest, you beat me the first time, but
I'll beat you the next time because you've grown all you are going to grow... but
I'm still growing!" He failed to accept failure and never gave up on his dreams.
As we go through life, it is important that we realize that we will have some
setbacks. We will have some seeming "failures". Things will not always work out
the way we expect. The key to being a success is to never give up! It is making a
commitment to get up as many times as you fall. A wise man puts it this way.
"Success is moving from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm."
It is also very important to note that failure is an event. It is not a person.
When you view failure as a person, you will certainly not progress. Did you fail
the exam or job interview? Did you fail in business? See it as an event and not a
person. You did not fail! You are not a failure! Yes, you didn't pass the exam.
Yes, you didn't get the job! So what? Go take the exam again. Apply for another
job! It's an event. Don't make it a person. Don't take it personal.
One key thing about overcoming failures is growing. Are you growing? Are you
improving your skills to overcome your present challenges? The greatest definition
of insanity is "doing the same thing the same way and expecting a different
result!" If you approach that same obstacle exactly the same way you did before,
you are still likely to fail! Something has got to change – your skill level, your
attitude, your commitment, and your relationships, just to mention a few. In order
words, you've got to grow above your present challenges. You've got to grow to
success. So, keep growing. Keep improving. In no time, you will be taller than
your "failures."
Let me close by saying this. You are not a failure when you fail. You are a
failure only when you give up! Don't give up. Keep on keeping on!
You will succeed! -by: Saraswati
