As failure to help in achieving success: tips billionaires

Good luck - it's not the same thing. Success does not reach the one who carries, but the one who removes the right lessons from failures.

Make mistakes and learn lessons

The biggest fall and the steepest ups gets the most successful. Rich people know what the collapse of the notorious "who flies too high, the low drops".

Great reach heights because they see faults and weaknesses, and know how to deal with them. I am convinced that the people who were able to overcome enormous difficulties to get more. And such people, I prefer to surround themselves with.

American lawyer Charles Munger (Charlie Munger), included in the Forbes list, convinced that without failure is impossible to lead a normal life. The meaning of life is precisely to learn to deal with them. And it is the failure to adequately respond to failure breaks fate.

George Soros, an American trader and investor calls the heroes of those who are able to recognize their own mistakes.

Turn pain into pleasure

Why do so many succumb to adversity? Because it's easier and safer.

The pain that you feel, analyzing the failures, I call growth pain. She accompanies personal growth. No pain - no shares.

Most prefer to give up after a few attempts. "I'm too weak, I can not do it, it's hard." But in fact afraid - this is normal. It's human nature: it is easier to focus on short-term pleasure than to think about what will benefit and happiness in the future.

If something hurts, it means that there is an active process of growth. At least with the sport, this principle works. Success is the ability to set the bar, and you want to jump higher than his head, to become stronger. If you reside in a comfort zone, will not increase, because there was a complete adaptation. Pain leads to an increase in the growth - to evolution.

Pushing the boundaries and scoring small victories motivate themselves. Then again pushes the boundaries motivate even more wins and big wins.

It's hard to believe, but billionaires, Olympic champions, politicians and athletes in the circus start small.

Try to look at life from a different angle

Imagine that life - it's a game. - Your mission is to avoid all obstacles and achieve the goals. During the game you will learn, gain experience and become better.

Think of obstacles and setbacks of life as an opportunity to learn something new. When you get used to easily bypass the trap of fate, you are surprised to realize that everything can.
