Today is my worst day of this month. I went to attend an event which is rocketry , i took my beautiful rocket with many expectations that it will fly, but what happened was that the pressure given by the compressor was so high that it smashed the taped rolled outside the rocket. i was unable to fly my rocket, i felt very very bad .
I was disturbed a lot, give me few tips to recover from my depression.Have you met these kinds of failures in your life.
Many also say that failure is the stepping stone for success. I will not leave this to happen the next year..

Not to worry because failure is commonplace in our lives. To quote Thomas Watson Sr. "It's quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure. You're thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn't at all." With each failure the new idea is known and with the second failure another idea and with the third yet another good idea comes up. The more we fail the more we learn.

When I think about succes and failure one of the things that comes to mind is the story about Edison. According to the story he failed more than 1000 time when he was trying to create a lightbulb, and when they asked him about it, he said: "I have not failed 1,000 times. I have successfully discovered 1,000 ways to NOT make a lightbulb."
I like the story, because I usually try to focus on the positive things when things don't go the way that I planned, and I believe that I have learned something from my failures. My own experience has often been a help for me when have been trying to help others, and sometimes I can help other people avoid the mistakes that I made.

Hi boonima,we often encounter something that can not be predected in our life.We should learn to conqure it and heal yourself.Maybe the competiters are really excellent than us,and we are really occlusive in our life.So what we can do is to learn more techonoly or skills to catch up with them.Do not be so negative,I belive you can do it well in the future.
