Fail Ahead!

Just because someone fails, it does not make them a failure.

Teach your children to acknowledge all of the success and knowledge they gain from failure.

If they learn from it, they have valuable experience and that is a success.

No one learns how to do something on their first try.

In fact, some things take years or even a lifetime to accomplish.

But your children will never succeed if they give up.

A failure should not be the end of the road, but one checkmark in the list of things to do before reaching success, which is the very last step.

If you teach your children to think of their failed attempts as progress instead of failures, they will build the self-esteem needed to persevere in their goals.

Thomas Edison said, “I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is just one more step forward.”

It took him 2,000 tries to invent the light bulb.

He never counted his 1,999 first attempts as failures, but as ways that didn’t work.

If you teach your children at a young age to persist even when they feel like they will fail, you are setting them up for a life of success.
