By Ellesse When I first read about Wilma Rudolph’s story, I suddenly remembered a primary school classmate (i.e. grade school) who also suffered from the same dreadful disease (i.e. Polio).

By Brian G. Jett Failure separates those who think they want success from those who are determined to win. Failure narrows the playing field.

By Reza Ali Have you suffered from a setback lately? Is it still haunting you? Do you ever wonder why setbacks are sometimes so painful? We are creatures of success. It's built within us.

Facing Fear Of Failure

11:18 PM KD No comments

By Glen D. Williams We've all experienced some form of fear of failure while growing up or as an adult. It stops some of us from even trying, while others try half-halfheartedly, undermining their own success and confirming their fear.

Failure Is a Great Teacher

8:10 PM KD No comments

By Clodualdo Clody Burdeos When I start to be in business I assure myself that I would not fail because I was thinking of what other would say if I fail. Looking back at my first business decision, I have to chuckle at how naive I was. I know that to be successful, failure is a part of it. I mean there is no possible way you can be successful without...
