What’s the Difference Between Success and Failure?

October 1st, 2008

Have you heard the stories of Abraham Lincoln, or Colonel Sanders, or even Thomas Edison? What do they all have in common?

I bet you’re thinking these guys were very successful. Well, one thing you gotta know, is they guys were very successful, but they also experience some serious failure.

I don’t have exact numbers, but Abraham Lincoln failed as a US Senator, Colonel Sanders was almost broke going door to door to try to sell his chicken recipe, and it was like the hundred somethingth try that resulted in the light bulb.

What made these men a success is that they were persistent, and they never gave up. For them, failure was really only a lesson in what not to do, or what to do differently the next time.

If you want to be successful, whether it be to lose weight, get that promotion, win the guy, then you need to keep on keeping on. There is no guarantee of success, but if you stop, or you don’t try, there is 100% guarantee of failure.

I hope you never give up and you keep on pushing forward to that goal and make sure you always push for success!
