Failure is part of success, how do we accept that to be true?

A lot of people are afraid of failing they even make affirmative statements like "I'll never fail" but how can we succeed without failing?

You need to understand exactly what failure is to know how to handle it. Failure merely indicates that there is something to learn, a different course of action or another chance to try the same task again but with a different approach.

But the thing is while we keep experiencing the bitterness of failure, it is crucial to avoid letting failure break your heart.

I am well aware that praising failure, as in "fail fast" or "fail often" is a current trend. We need to realize that the term failure does not imply that we embrace catastrophes. It means when we are consistently getting results that fall short of our intended outcome. So we try again and again and keep getting better as we keep trying with stopping.

A lot of people don't realize that failure is both necessary and inevitable. Failure teaches you what you need to work on so if you never fail, you will never learn the right path. It's more like failing forward, you advance each time you gain knowledge and you gain knowledge each time you make mistakes.

No great businessperson, entrepreneur, inventor or leader has ever been successful without making mistakes along the way.

Even the old saying "The perfect is the enemy of the good" has a deeper significance. Let's try to put it another way
Improvement and at least partial success result from experiencing imperfection and continuing towards the goal.

No one wants to see fail on their exams, no one sees failure as being cool and ok, they're not exactly Happy when it happens. But the matured ones have learned to accept failure in life. You need to accept the fact that you have limitations and it'll take time to get better at something, and while the time is not up you're make mistakes that'll lead to you failing.

Success is a good thing but it's temporary, failure is bad but it's also temporary, anyone can get back on their feet.
