7 Lessons We Can Learn From Michael Jordan

7 Lessons We Can Learn From Michael Jordan

2. Do not fear failure.

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
--Michael Jordan

Most people are afraid of failing. They are so fearful of failure that it halts all their action but the funny thing in life is that if we do not take any action, we are doom for failure. Contradicting isn't it?

Failure is part of success. We can actually perceieve failure as a feedback adn the feedback works as a reminder to tell us something is wrong and we need to fix it. Failure doesn't condem us, it is just Nature's way of telling us to fix something that isn't right.
