“Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end.”

Denis Waitley

Simplified Meaning:

When we fail at something, it doesn't mean we should give up. Instead, we should learn from our mistakes and keep trying. Think of it like when you're driving and you take a wrong turn. You don't just stop the car and give up; you find a new route to get to your destination. Failure is just a brief pause, not the end of the road. It's like when Thomas Edison made thousands of attempts before finally inventing the light bulb. Each failed attempt was just a step closer to success. So, if something doesn't work out the first time, use that experience to improve and keep moving forward.
