Failure Equals Success
Only today have I really grasped the term Failure Equals SUCCESS! As I look in hindsight over the last ten years of my life and the failures within them, I can only now see, how the successes in my life were a direct result of the failures. Without my failures I would never have been able to obtain the necessary experiences, the necessary life lessons that have lead to Any of my success!
One of the greatest athletes to ever embrace us; “Michael Jordan” has missed over 9000 shots in his career lost over 300 games, has been trusted to carry his team to victory with a game winning shot, and missed it over 26 times. Here is Michael’s interpretation of his failures.
Some of the best inspiration for me comes from the weirdest places. Like a video such as this that I might stumble upon, on youtube. Or something one of my daughters might say or do. At that moment, the moment when they say it, that is the moment I needed the message. Almost as if has found “ME” instead of me finding it. This message was one of those times.
After six years of blood, sweat, and tears and putting everything I had into a business (which most would consider very successful but fell short of what I would consider a success) I decided to sell it, and reevaluate my life. In doing so I asked myself, “Have I Failed?” After pondering that question over several sleepless nights I came to this conclusion. The question is not “Have I Failed” the question is really “HAVE I FAILED ENOUGH?” For me any Success in my life is a direct reflection of how many times I have failed. Without my failures I could never of had success! Without the broken heart, the missed opportunities, countless mistakes I would not have any of the Success! More importantly at any given moment I know that I am a few failures away from the Success!
I’d love to hear from you, so leave me a comment down below and let me know what your thoughts are!








Aaron, I love this commercial. How great is it that one of the best athletes the world has even seen is talking about how much he has failed, or “failed his way to the top” as they say.
Great stuff here!
Keep it coming my man!
