Success Thinking And Actions: Success From
Failure
In school we learn about fascinating things like addition and subtraction; multiplication and division; open and
closed systems; evaporation and condensation; positive and negative; as well as a host of known opposites or
counterarguments in almost every facet of life.
In life we also learn about night and day; yin and yang; war and peace...you get the idea
These are all really flipsides of the same thing. The key principle is that one side can blend or transform into
the other
So it is with success and failure. What is failure but negative success? So how do we make the change from
failure to success?
Simply take away the negative
Positive thinking and positive actions bring about success. They equate with success thinking and actions
The critical element is to link thinking with actions. This means positive thinking by itself is not enough
Even the usual understanding of positive thinking may need a new definition. To maximize its utility, it must
incorporate all learning which can be extracted from failure
Do you know what this implies? It means that failure must precede success! Shocking but true, and borne out in
real-life experiences. Think about it: success needs a reference point for comparison. Without failure, success has
no meaning; just as positive has no meaning unless set against negative; and condensation cannot occur without
preceding evaporation
How then to achieve success? Fail as fast and often as possible! Then success also comes fast and often as
possible
Failure? No problem, just flip it and achieve success
It can be done with success thinking and actions.
