Success is the art of failing forward

Success is the art of failing forward

“Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm,” Winston S. Churchill. Or perhaps a different perspective is offered by Thomas A. Edison, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

I have always thought that success is the art of failing forward. I am not sure if that is really original, but that is how I have always understood success since I was quite young and starting-out. I never let not know what I was doing to stop me and I kept failing forward… To this very day.

30 Powerful Quotes on Failure by Ekaterinea Walter, 12/30/2013 at Forbes - http://www.forbes.com/sites/ekaterinawalter/2013/12/30/30-powerful-quotes-on-failure/

It seems that failure tends to be more public than success. Or at least that’s what we perceive it to be. We fret it, we try to avoid it, and we question ourselves every time we have unconventional ideas. But the simple truth is – no great success was ever achieved without failure. It may be one epic failure. Or a series of failures – such as Edison’s 10,000 attempts to create a light bulb or Dyson’s 5,126 attempts to invent a bagless vacuum cleaner. But, whether we like it or not, failure is a necessary stepping stone to achieving our dreams.

Several months ago I gave a short, TED-style talk on the topic. And today I wanted to share this collection of 30 quotes that will hopefully inspire you to look at failure differently.

1. “Failure isn’t fatal, but failure to change might be” – John Wooden

2. “Everything you want is on the other side of fear.”  - Jack Canfield
