Why my past failures gets me excited
I don’t know how to say it, but as I count my failed ventures in the past, I get excited.
As one of the greatest inventor has said it, after failing numerous times to invent something really useful,
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work. ” - Thomas Edison
So it’s like a “process of elimination”. The more you fail, the more you’ve eliminated the things that will not work and soon it will lead you to the things that will finally work.
I failed in the following:
1. Failed in my web design and hosting business.
2. Failed in network marketing business.
3. Failed in my small restaurant business.
4. Failed in retail store business.
As I reckon these failures, I can feel and see the success I’ve been praying for is coming. Learning from the past is really important though. You don’t want to keep on failing without learning anything. But make every stumbling block as a stepping-stone.

Really nice post. I need to read a lot of things like you’ve posted. It’s very empowering knowing that really, success is the result of past failure (and learning from it.)
