Is Failure a Bad Thing? Failure is a common thing in life. But there are different attitudes towards failure. Whoever draws a lesson from every failure becomes experienced and succeeds. So failure has a different effect on anyone who has a different attitude. As for me, I like success. Meanwhile, I don't mind failure because it isn't a bad matter, and we can stand up in the failure, which isn't indeed an easy matter. As is known, the defeat to a victor is actually an important basic skill and the required course. In my opinion we should take an active attitude towards failure, because most of us experience the failure though few of us are so lucky as to succeed. Failure tells us such things as why we failed and what we should do to correct the mistakes. Failure also tells us how to approach our goals and ensures us failure is the mother of success.
