That Is Why I Succeed

 That Is Why I Succeed

I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career.
I’ve lost almost 300 games.
Twenty-six times I’ve been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed.
I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life.
And that is why I succeed.

~ Michael Jordan ~

    Lesson of life. The more we fail the greater the probability we will succeed the next time. It’s a mathematical equation.

    I have not failed, I have just found 10,000 ways that won’t work…

    That is how all great things are achieved, consistent attention coupled with persistent effort; a little bit at a time,until the right time comes when that work is rewarded.

    There is Always a way to do it better…find it.

    Just what I needed,to pick myself up and face the reality of life. Embroiled as we are in the fast chugging train of living, it is so easy to forget the essence of existence and wallow in self pity. Thanks a lot Pravs, you are doing a great job!

    Wonderful..

    “Million reasons for failure, but not a single excuse.”
    Treats your failures as practise shots..As winner is simply an
    ex-loser who got mad !

    I love this qoute from Michael Jordan coz it’s saying that failures are our armor in order to succeed in life. Achievers like Jordan has the same experience alike to ordinary people . They succeed inspite of failures and so we can succeed also.
