Five Ways That Failure Transforms You Into Greatness

Tvitalplus

Have you ever wondered if there was a way that
failure could transform your life towards your
success? I used to hate failure. Now I see failure
differently and look forward to failing every day.
What I learned is that the most successful
people in the world failed extraordinarily before
they had their biggest successes.
These people knew that failure wasn’t something
that was going to hold them back, but instead it
would be something that was a driving force
propelling them to their goals. Becoming great
will likely be a process in which you overcome
failure.

Here are the 5 ways that failure
transforms you into greatness :

1. Finding something
worth pursuing allows
you to be more

Failing at something means that your goal is
worth fighting for. Accomplishments and goals
mean nothing when they are easy and just given.
Having a goal worthy of you will lead you on to
discover more about what is great in you.
This moment of trial is when you have to dig in
and commit to your goal. You have the chance
to push through in the face of failure and fight
on in the face of a worthy adversary. This task is
bigger than you and a feat that will allow you to
grow. What more could you ask for?

2. Reaffirms your belief
in yourself

Most people don’t get enough opportunities to
prove to themselves that they really believe in
themselves. When you get the chance to look
failure dead in the eye and tell it that you are
not wavering, this is when you tell life that you
are going to win.
By standing up in the face of devastation and
despair you can align yourself better and fully
affirm to yourself that you won’t give up. When
you have this inner congruence against the
opposing forces holding you back it is a powerful
step towards coming into your greatness.

“Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but
in rising every time we fall.” – Confucius

3. Being broken down
builds you up stronger
than before
When we are down and out on our luck this
gives us the opportunity to first take all that life
is throwing at us and then turn it around to
empower us.
We have to recognize that either our approach
isn’t working or that we are not quite there yet
in the knowledge or the abilities we need for
success. Just learning this will lead you to more
growth.
Take a step back and make sure you are aligned
with your goal. Then become even more. Allow
that failure to strengthen you and dig even
deeper to find the path that you know you must
take to fulfill your success.

4. Others seeing you
fail will rally your fans
Your haters will cheer for your demise, but your
fans will rally. What is more is that you won’t
know how many fans you really have until you
put yourself out there. If you fear failure and
don’t put yourself out there then you fail to give
them the opportunity to cheer for you. They want
want someone to believe in.
When your fans see that you failed and won’t
back down then they will rally around you. Having
this positive force and will power driving you to
win, they will help thrust you to greater success.
These people will aid you in becoming even
more.

5. The world embraces
you for what you give
The universe is all about growth. When you can
grow into your own success and find that inner
greatness it allows others to find it as well. By
finding out how much more you are capable of
after failing, you will be a powerful help to
others.
When you build others up and teach them that
failure is just part of the process then you
contribute to the world in a way of tremendous
growth. This further allows you to transform
yourself into a person of more greatness.

my life. And that is why I succeed.” –Michael
Jordan

This ability to persevere in times of difficulty or
disappointment is not something that is for
everyone. In fact, many people have the hardest
time taking another step forward in their
moments of challenge, but when you strive
forward you can unlock a power you might not
have known that you had.
Failure has the ability to transform your life if
you will let it . Some of the most important
advice that I have gotten was to fail more and to
fail quicker in life. Through failing in life I have
learned some of the greatest lessons. It has also
grown.
