In Success Language, Failure Means You Are Almost There!

In Success Language, Failure Means You Are Almost There!
I have to admit the title of my section this week is
OUTSTANDING! We all know as we are progressing towards our
personal goals, dreams and aspirations that we will fail
repeatedly, and then all of a sudden we achieve our
ultimate outcome and attain our WHY in LIFE! As I state on
my story page "Each failure is a stepping stone to Success,
which in turn will become a very long and lovely stone
walkway into the castle of your DREAMS!" You must truly
internalize the need to fail in life.

Most people fail more between the ages of 16-25 and then
they don't fail ever again in life, which means they never
SUCCEED! You see, at the age 25 the majority of people
lose their steam and decide to live a life instead of
designing a lifestyle for themselves and their families. I
am very proud to say that I have failed numerous times in
my life. Just ask my parents, they will tell you ..."but
John you went to college just get a JOB!" As
entrepreneurs, we all know that we never have jobs because
whatever we do has our life-print on it, which represents
our potential. The following is a list of people that we
all know who failed before they succeeded. I cannot
emphasize enough that you need to continue to try over and
over until you succeed and realize that, as I've said
before, "Each failure is a stepping stone to Success, which
in turn will become a very long and lovely stone walkway
into the castle of your DREAMS!"

FAILURES...BUT NOT QUITE --After Fred Astaire's first
screen test, a 1933 memo from the MGM testing director
said, "Can't act. Slightly bald. Can dance a little."
Astaire kept that memo over the fireplace in his Beverly
Hills home.

--A relatively unsuccessful marketer of restaurant
equipment, he didn't sell his first hamburger until age 52.
At a time when many people prepare for retirement, Ray
Kroc built McDonald's from a handful of hamburger stands
into the world's largest food chain.

--When his older brother was killed during World War II, he
first withdrew into a shell. Then he began to listen to
the radio to ease his pain. Soon he was dreaming about
hosting his own radio show. That led Dick Clark to start
American Bandstand.

--Walt Disney was fired by a newspaper for lacking ideas.
He also went bankrupt several times before he built
Disneyland.

The question that I have for you now is, "Do you realize
how you must be proud of your failures because they really
are successes?" Many of my workshop attendees have heard
me say "...experience is what you receive when you do not
achieve what you desire." I suggest to print this out and
put it on your desk where you can read this article every
day and remind yourself about Fred Astaire, Ray Kroc, Dick
Clark, and Walt Disney and say to yourself, "What is MY
story going to be?" You need to fail in order to
ultimately succeed in LIFE! After all, "IN SUCCESS
LANGUAGE, FAILURE MEANS YOU ARE "ALMOST THERE!"
