If there is anything single factor that makes for success in living,it is the ability to profit by defeat. Every succcess I know has been achieved because the person was able to analyze defeat and actully profit by it in his nest undertaking.
confuse defeat with falure,and you are doomed indeed to failure. For it isn't defeat that makes you fail:it is your own refusal to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success.
what is your idea?

Defeat is the stage of testing how you can handle yourself to stand up again. Defeat is always present in our lives,its never gone. We just need to find our own ways and solution to turn this negative word into a positive one. If that happens, defeat will be gone and success will follow. :)

You are right Guizoo. If you will look at the positive side of failure it will always bring give you to the next step of being successful. always take it as a challenge and never up. try to assess situation and plan out practical resolutions to help you out become successful.

I accept your view we can view defeat in a more positive way.We can learn from it in the sense that we will become aware that this is one way we should avoid doing to get positive results.We can also think in terms that failure is the stepping stone to success.When we do badly we can Analise th error of our ways and take corrective action the next time.Accepting failure and not doing anything about it is wrong but if we make amends and take corrective measures we are bound to profit from it.
