None of us like failure because it causes sadness , regret or fear . However , most of us believe that it is through the pain of failure that we learn . I think it's true . We can get some experience through failure , which is something valuable in one's life . Several years ago , I was not good at English spelling and always failed in dictations . My teacher encouraged and helped me a lot . Gradually I got the way of remembering words and made progress in English . So I think success won't come to us by itself unless we go to it .
