Discovering Life through Failure

Posted on June 17, 2011November 1, 2018 by Michael Rose

The Take-Away:

“It is our failure to become our perceived ideal that ultimately defines us and makes us unique.It’s not easy, but if you accept your misfortune and handle it right, your perceived failure can become a catalyst for profound reinvention. . . . Whether you fear it or not, disappointment will come. The beauty is that through disappointment you can gain clarity; with clarity comes conviction and true originality.” – Conan O’Brien
