“Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better.” —Samuel Beckett
Failure is hard! The sting of a letdown, the agony of experiencing disappointment and the pain of defeat is hard to endure. Failure crushes you, hurts you deeply and leaves your ego bruised. No wonder everyone dreads failure, but keep in mind that no amount of hating or detesting it can help you avoid it. Success and failure are the two phases of the same coin. Failure is a part of life and the success process. It is certain if you want to succeed in life and desire to do something incredible.

Failure throws two choices in your way: either give up or fight again. But how you deal with failure will determine your future. You can choose to opt for the easy way out, step back and quit or make the hard choice of picking yourself up, getting back on your feet and starting all over again. The right choice will help you steer yourself towards success and transform your life.
Here are the 9 ways how to overcome and convert failure to success:
- Stop Complaining and Accept what happened
The first thing you should do when you have failed is to accept it and come to terms with it. Don’t ignore, deny or hide it. You have failed and there’s nothing you can do to UNDO it now. Embrace it and move forward.
- Own Your Failure
Accept your failure and decide to do something about it. As it is said,” A bad workman always blames his tools”. You should learn to take accountability for yourself. Never blame people, situation or conditions for your failure as there are millions of people who succeed even after having a more adverse situation. Transform your weaknesses into your strengths.
- Analyze the reasons “why and where”
Gain insight into what went wrong and where. Analyze and a rundown on the number of things that didn’t work for you. The most common reason for failure is just a lack of planning and preparation. Figure out why you feel demotivated to study and find out how to overcome it (blog link). You must learn from your silly mistakes and ‘heed the lessons of failure’, as Bill Gates put it. Convert failure to success by changing your way of progression towards the work that you do. Always be open to feedback.
- Chalk Out New Plan
Identify your weaknesses, work on them and turn them into your strength. Revise your strategy, prepare yourself, work on your weak points and create a new study plan to put things right. Be innovative and try to make new changes. Be more productive while preparing for exams.

This will keep you motivated and inspired.

- Give your best shot and begin again
Failure shouldn’t be the end of your dreams, goals, and aspirations. Be resilient to bounce back to achieve what you aspire to have. The power of failure should only motivate you to chase your goals with a fresh start. “Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts”, Winston Churchill. Give your best shot in this attempt. You will succeed.
Failure can work for you big time if you look at it the right way. As A.P.J Abdul Kalam said, “Don’t read success stories, you will only get a message. Read failure stories also, you will get some ideas to get success.” Read the inspiring stories of successful people.
