Success and Failure

 Success and failure are merely the only two consequences of your outcome. Either you succeed or you fail. Never be too happy over success and too sad over a failure. The former is meant to grow and the latter is meant to improve. We should never have an emotional reaction towards these consequences.

Do you know Elon Musk experienced big failure when he stepped into the space industry? The very first launch of their rocket failed miserably. Their rocket exploded the very moment it was launched. And so happened in their next two launches as well. But he didn't stop. He could have quit after the unsuccess of the first launch but he motivated his team, they worked hard, improved upon it, and came with their second rocket that too unfortunately exploded on the launch. This time he could have definitely given up. In fact, anyone at his place would have given up. But Elon Musk again took this as an opportunity to improve. SpaceX once again worked hard and came up with its third rocket which too turned out to be a failure. Three failures in a row are big enough to destroy the emotions of people and make them give up, particularly when it is about a rocket company where a lot of money, people, and hard work have been invested. But, coward are the people who fear failure, this is something I guess Elon Musk believes in. So, he came up with his fourth rocket which actually turned out to be a huge success. And after that, SpaceX kept on launching innovations in the space industry and still counting. It is the only company that made a reusable space rocket, something that always seemed impossible until they showed it to the world. Last year NASA sent their astronauts to the international space station from a SpaceX space shuttle. And today, Elon Musk is the second richest person on this planet and aims at settling humanity on mars one day.

Only if he had given up on that first rocket launch, would he be able to achieve all this? This is how things get way better if we stop reacting to our success and failure emotionally. This is the difference between the mindset of a highly successful person and an ordinary person. Start thinking more practical, forget about the past, stop worrying about the future. Just keep on improving the present and everything will eventually get at its best. 

I don't know what to write more about this, I guess its enough to make a change.

Have a great day!
