Failure is the Ladder of Success
Failing in life is a real life experience. Life experiences are a composite of all the skills necessary to get along in the real world. It's comprised of all those skills that are only learned through failure and the obstacles of life, like how to hold a conversation, get away with a lie or entertain someone you really don't like.
Great crowds are seen in colleges about grades. But in the real world, it's about experience, balls and drive. Because once you get past the first job, no one is ever going to ask you about your intelligence or What matters in the real world is your ability to adapt, innovate and get along. Real life is about how well you can challenge your way through it, and that's not something taught in a classroom.
The greatest thinkers, leaders and entrepreneurs are such men to defy the rules and take risks. However, their “failures' were not a factor of intelligence, but an inability to be weighed down by grades and superficial markings. Bill Gates, is just a few of the men who achieved bottomless amounts of wealth, status and success without ever really succeeding in a classroom. He is the man, that by society’s standards, had failed. With his passion and intelligence, he was able to change the world with nothing more than a bachelor’s degree and a transcript of failing grades. The man understood at an early age that just because of society and everyone is around him now.
But it’s not just the extreme example of eccentric billionaires and tech geniuses that should solidify the results of this finding. It’s about yourself and the gut feelings you have towards what is right and what is wrong. The people who do great things are the ones too absorbed in their own ideas to place too much weight on the opinions of others.
So for all of you preparing for finals, or finishing them with a bitter taste in your mouth, this should be reason enough not to worry. There’s plenty of opportunity out there. If you get failure in one step, another opportunities will be waiting for you.
