Failure is a part of everyone's life. No matter in what type you fail or in what matter. But be it in any stream or any field, just a question is enough to ask. Does failure makes you depress or does it inspire you to perform in a more better way and try again ? In my case, answer is that it makes me depress but it also inspires me that i can do more better. But sometimes, the depression is so much, that i feel very bad, but still I never lose hope.

I think it depends on what it is. Mostly I get what I want or half a way I discover it's not what I really want. I don't get depressed (which means you are not able to do anything anymore and you stay in your bed for weeks with the curtains closed and you don't want to see anyone or don't want to live anymore.). Also I don't look upon things that won't work for me as a failure. Perhaps a good tip to do the same? It's only a failure if you see it that way.

Its said that "Failure is the pillar of success" and i do believe that. My favorite writer Hemingway told " a man can be destroyed but not defeated". I try to think the same. Have a nice time.

i feel bad when i fail on something but i always consider it as a test of my patience and a challenge for me that i should try harder the next time and failures teaches us to be strong.
