Failure is a subjective thing, just as success is subjective. Every person and society defines failure differently. Did you know that most successful people see failures as stepping stones to their goals? When somebody fails, it helps you get data point on what went wrong so they can focus on the next action steps. Unfortunately, when we fail, it's easy to feel like a failure and get discouraged. In this video, we share 5 reasons why failure is actually good for you. This way,  you won't have a fear of failure ever again. Failure motivation can be useful. 

“I have not failed 10,000 times – I’ve successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work.”  

We also made a video for those who feel left behind: https://youtu.be/TlTIpnLL68o
