If you fail…

Posted in My Life by todd on the September 9th, 2006

So while taking a break from the web and reading (yes a real book) Rich Dad Poor Dad I stumbled upon one of my favorite forgotten quotes.

“Failure inspires winners.  And failure defeats losers”

This quote is true on SO many levels! I thought I would share one of my personal examples about myself and a friend.

Most recently I was talking to a friend of mine about his sites and how he was doing, basically catching up.  Well as it turns out he made a couple sites he was expecting to earn some money with and as it turns out is making under $1/day on AdSense.  I told him that sucks and then asked “what other sites are you working on, etc” his answer was that he got kind of frustrated with not making any money from his other sites and “kind-of” gave up on making money online.

This is a classic example of failure conquering his mind.  I don’t think my friend is a loser by any means, he is smart with the technical aspect of websites and other things related to websites he just stumbled on his first couple attempts at making money online.

With that said if you are new to making money online or just new to the web and are trying your hand at blogging… if at first you don’t succeed pick yourself up and try again, and again, and again.  Take from each failure something!  You are not learning how to fail you are learning how to NOT do something.  Try harder and your next website, blog, business or whatever may exceed your wildest dreams!

“The greatest secret of winners is that failure inspires winning; thus they’re not afraid of losing”
