If you set out to do some business but failed, do not lose your confidence. There are great differences between that “I failed three times” and that “I am a failure”. As long as you try to learn from you failure instead of holding a negative view about yourself or identifying with failure, you are very likely to succeed in the future. Have you ever thought that those who have failed again and again are always the victims of bad self-image? They failed often because of not external reasons but internal reasons. Countless examples verify that if those people could be prevailed on to change their view and set up positive self-image, their performance would change miraculously. Success can come at any time, whenever you are thirty, forty or when it seems that you have failed all your life. Success in early years is sweet, but the late one is more tasty. U4
