The 7 Reasons We Fail
Lack of persistence
More people fail not because they lack knowledge or talent but because they just quit.
Lack of conviction
People who lack conviction take the middle of the road. What happens in the middle of the road? You get run over.
Part of that conviction comes in the form of planning and preparation. Here is what Ben Franklin said about proper preparation:
“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”
Rationalization
Winners might analyze, but they never rationalize. Losers rationalize and have a book full of excuses to explain why they couldn't succeed.
Dismissal of past mistakes
Some people live and learn, and some only live. Failure can be a teacher if we have the right attitude.
Here's what Ben Franklin said about learning from mistakes:
"I didn't fail the test; I just found 100 ways to do it wrong."
"Do not fear mistakes. You will know failure. Continue to reach out."
Lack of discipline
No one who has accomplished anything worthwhile has done it without discipline.
Poor self-esteem
Poor self-esteem is a lack of self-respect and self-worth.
Fatalistic attitude
A fatalistic attitude prevents people from accepting responsibility for their position in life. They attribute success and failure to luck.
So, what reasons do you need to overcome?
