Anyone who has achieved anything great, anyone who has CHANGED THE WORLD has at some point made a choice to learn from failure and move forward.  If you look at the most inspirational innovators, athletes, celebrities, geniuses, and icons throughout history, they all shared the belief that the failure was merely a stepping stone to the success they seriously sought.  

Failure is feedback.  It points out what is not working so you can go on to discover what will work.  "Turn that lemon into lemonade and enjoy the journey," says Coach Joyce Barrie.
