10 BEST QUOTES ON FAILURE


Every person, and especially every entrepreneur, should embrace failure with open arms.
It is only through failure that we learn. Many of the world’s finest minds have learned this the hard  way – here are some my favorite quotes on the importance of failure, and the road to success.
10. When we give ourselves permission to fail, we, at the same time, give ourselves permission to excel.
                                                    - Eloise Ristad
9. Success is most often achieved by those who don’t know that failure is inevitable.
                                                    -Coco Chanel
8. The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one
                                                    –Elbert Hubbard
7. Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve  greatly.
                                                    - Robert F. Kennedy
6. Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.
                                                     - Winston Churchill
5. One who fears failure limits his activities. Failure is only the opportunity to more
intelligently begin again.
                                                     - Henry Ford
4. The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
                                                    - Ralph Waldo  Emerson
3. Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping
stones to success.
                                                   - Dale Carnegie
2. I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six
times I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over
and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
                                                 - Michael Jordan
1. I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.
                                                      - Thomas A. Edison

By Dr Strive Masiyiwa Amongst the many things I wanted to achieve with this platform was to get young African entrepreneurs to reach out and start talking to each other, doing business deals, and partnering to find solutions to Africa's many other challenges. I'm not sure if you saw this comment I made during our discussion on partnerships a while back: "Afterthought: Here is a secret! The most successful Africans in future are those who master the ability to partner with Africans from other African countries... Shhhh! (Keep this secret to yourself, because there are many enemies out there who will try and stop you from believing this.)" As an entrepreneur, there are huge benefits for you if Africa can shift its economic narrative to what I sometimes refer to as "Africanization." We as Africans need to open up this continent to development by Africans. However, this should not be to the exclusion of working with partners from other parts of the worl...
