Instant MBA: Have an “Unemotional Relationship with Failure” and You’ll Succeed
I agree with this article. Past failure does not equal future failure. Learning from past mistakes, figuring out where you went wrong, and correcting the problem will ensure success.

I agree failure is just a lesson. Failure is an experience that makes you aware and stronger. You use failure to your advantage. You use failure to succeed.

Reilly’s approach to failure emphasized the point that you can’t dwell on your failures and misfortunes. You could either learn from your mistakes or focus on the negative and remain stagnant. Everyone fails at something but, only the strong overcome. Failure could be an option but, it’s up to you how you counteract that failure. In my past experience, I hated to fail but, I realized that it was my pride that hindered my success. I’m a work in progress in terms of handling failure. I’m trying to find a balance and in my career I hope to not allow my failures to get in the way of my progression.

In order to have your own business can you have to be strong minded in the beginning. Managers should already be aware of the possibilities of failure and success. When you fail, don't get down and discouraged about it. It doesn't mean your plan was a waste. It is always possible that the steps taken to get to that ultimate goal. Failure is not usually your well thought out product, it is the route taken to get there.

When it comes to failure you have to get back on your feet and try again. Failure is not always bad unless you consistently do it over and over again. People fail its life, its what you do after you fail that sets you apart from everyone else. If you are failing over and over then it makes no sense to try again. Failure can benefit you in the end because now you know that you have fail but at the same time you can succeed by doing so.

INSTANT MBA: Have An 'Unemotional Relationship With Failure' And You'll Succeed
An unemotional relationship with failure is a great way to describe the way you should just have a respect for the past but not dwell on it. Failing does not mean that you will definitely fail again and the same can be said for success. The author says "for each mistake you make you are that much closer for making the right decision the next time." That is a great way to look optimistically at how you close you might be to your next big breakthrough.

This link of the day talks about learning from failure. Although there has already been a link about this i think that learning from failure has become a cliche. Truly successful people take each failure to heart and are truly grateful for the opportunity to learn from it. The link quotes, “Each mistake you make increases the chances of making the right decision the next time around.” This means that every time you fail you are that much closer to succeeding.

I think that with each mistake or failure a lesson is learned. Just as past victories don't ensure future success, past failures also don't ensure future downfalls. It is crucial for those who fail to maximize those shortcomings into lessons that can benefit your company further down the line.

When you are unafraid of failure it makes you want to succeed that much more. This helps to get you motivated and keep working towards what you really want in the end. When you are afraid of failure and you are not expecting it, you can get too upset causing you to loose focus of what you really wanted in the beginning. Yet when your are expecting failure and you are not afraid of it, when you do fail it will just make you want to better the next time even more.

This article to me has made a lot of sense because I played baseball up until I got hurt my sophomore in college. In baseball you learn how to deal with failure, usually players fail seven out of ten times. If a major league baseball players bats at around mid 300s they are in the hall of fame, this being said the guys who get paid to play fail all the time, the moral of the story is how much you can learn from your failures and how much you work and practice to get better. This sport helps me to get ready for failure and teaches me how to deal with it, and what I need to do to not allow it to happen again or happen as much.

Behind every great success there was once a failure that motivated it to be so. In this article the author speaks of the emotions that are often affiliated with failure. I agree that emotions should not play a significant role in the experience of failing. If one is blinded by their emotions then their judgement can become clouded and this may cause them to react spontaneously and ultimately ruin their chances for success. Failure needs to be accepted in the process of success, but it is not something that one should hold on to.

I really enjoyed this article. My favorite part was the quote, "Each mistake you make increases the chances of making the right decision the next time around.". I have alwasy believed that everytime you fail you are just that much closer to succeding. Just because you fail at something does not make it the end. Its what you do with the failures that will determine if you succeed. You have to be willing to fail to succeed in the business world today.

I agree with this article you have to have a short term memory with failure and success. If you fail, than you have to learn from it and move on. If you succeed, than you need to take that knowledge you gained and use it when similar situations arise once more. If you were to dwell in your failure you never are able to succeed. You cannot get too comfortable and you have to try to get better with every new venture and you will remain successful.

This article was very similar to link #7. This article discusses the importance of never giving up and learning from failures. James Marshell Reilly explains you should have an unemotional relationship with failure. This means you are able to move on from any failures without looking back and letting it hinder any future success. My favorite line from the article says, “Just as past victories don't ensure future success, past failures also don't ensure future downfalls.” I really like this view. If everyone gave up the first time they failed, we wouldn’t have a lot of the technology and advances we have today.
