Don't be afraid of failure, be afraid of being in the exact same place over and over again. Failing isn't a problem because nobody has ever stood successful or become successful without failing at one point in their lives or the other. No matter the fierceness of the attack from an opponent, a lioness never bows her head in shame when he or she fails because
The absence of battles never makes one a champion because champions aren't groomed one day, it is the number of conquered battles, the number of times he or she has failed and risen again that makes one a champion. Be glad that the battle met you or that you are faced with a battle now, what's best for you is to heal, grow and become resilient, daring, and courageous, get up and take a walk again because it's not the end of the world.
We should learn to understand that failure isn't the end of a person but refusing to get up and take a leap after failing is the worst thing that can ever happen to anyone. Failure is part of a journey to success, so never be afraid of failing because it is inevitable in your journey.
Don't be afraid of failing, be afraid of not being able to get up after failing, be afraid of getting stuck in a particular thing year after year without improvement because that's the worst kind of failure.
