By Losing We Gain A Lot!

Many people have one thing in common, they dread failures or loss. Failures and losses indeed cause a great amount of emotional pain, but further thought reveals that by failing and losing we gain more than what we lose. We gain more for life than mere success.

failures are nature's way of correction. We got to learn the most important lessons that can alter every aspect of our life.

What many of us don't do is take time to assess and think over it and pick up the lessons that are essential for life ahead.

When failures occur we should be firm in our conviction and vision. We must pursue our goals and goals can be achieved.

My brother, william lost an election on 27th Dec 2009 and was disappointed and felt that he had lost everything. But in deeper sense, he gained a lot in that defeat. Sure, his ego melted, became humble and then his priorities shifted, family responsibilities took precedent. He decided to mend some of his bad habits and embrace a life of abundance, hope, love, freedom and happiness. He began minding his own business.

So loss or failures aren't bad in itself, rather they are bad or not worthy if we fail to learn something from it. It is good if we accept the failure and move on ahead.
