Notes About The Poem

Failure Is Just a Beginning

Failure is inevitable!
                        But why surrender when...
                             it's just a beginning?

              No one is immune to it. It's a part of life. 
   We've all failed at something at some point in our lives.
       It's nothing to be afraid of. There's no shame in it.

           Failure is not death; it's a temporary setback.
            A learning experience, a blessing in disguise.
     Because we learn a lot more from it than from success.

         Whenever we miss a rung and fall off the ladder
          to success, we must get up and climb back on!
 Failure is the ultimate motivator to dreamers like you and me
      
               It teaches us never to give up or give in
                So, when you try and fail at something
           And you listen to your inner voice telling you...

                                    to try again, 
                              you'll taste success 
                                     before long
