"The defeated are those who never fail"
"The defeated are those who never fail. Defeat means that we lose a particular battle of war. Failure does not allow us to go on fighting. Defeat ends when we launch into another battle. Failure has no end; it is a lifetime choice. Defeat is for those who, despite their fears, live with enthusiasm and faith. Only they will know the honor of losing and the joy of winning." Paulo Coelho
If you are failing that means you are trying. I've been through so many battles in my life that felt like I was being pushed down to my knees. I started to think that I am a failure. I even quit on few dreams thinking that they are impossible to achieve. Until I was inspired by many personal stories from very successful people. I heard from them how they failed so many times, but they still continued and succeeded. And that is exactly when I realized that successful people do fail, and fail miserably but the difference between them and between the defeated is that they don't give up.
I always thought that successful people are born successful. I did not think that they fail at all. Oh boy was I wrong? Not only was I wrong, I was a fool! That tiny adjustment in my mind changed my life. And now I think of failure as an experience, I learn from it than I move on. I made my mind up and I chose to never be defeated by not failing. I will keep trying and failing until I make it to my dreams. This quote by Paulo confirmed it all for me. " The defeated are those who never fail." Indeed.

wow! i just made a blog saying the same thing, but i explained it differently; this is confirmation that i can not be defeated. I recently wrote in my blog that i felt like giving up on school and if i did that means that i have lost my faith. one thing i do know is "faith without work is dead" that means not only do we suppose to have faith, but also believe it. i know school is overwhelming but i have been through worse and this too shall pass.
