Failure That Can Not Defeat

FAILURE is a sickening thing, but we have no right to let it be a signal for giving up. The man who fails because of his failures, has surrendered in a fight that God meant to have him win. “There is no man who has won a perfect victory,” says Speer. “Men are not divided into two classes—the men who fail and the men who succeed. Every man is in the failing class. Men are simply divided into different groups according to the attitude they take toward their failures.” The men who fail and conquer are they who refuse to let their failures speak the last word.
