Problems are a normal part of change. Things are changing so rapidly that there are going to be problems you encounter. You must look at failure as an event, not as a person.  Maybe I’ve had a failure or a temporary inconvenience, but I’m not a failure. The idea is to turn the stumbling block into a stepping stone, and step on it instead of stumbling over it.

So learn to look at failure as the fertilizer of success. Fertilizer stinks, it smells. You see that guy putting it on his lawn and you say, “Wow, that guy fertilized his lawn, he’s trying to make it better.”  You fertilize your mistakes, you don’t wallow in them, lay in them, or roll in them. You pick yourself up from your mistakes, learn from them and try not to repeat them. Look at it as a temporary inconvenience, as a detour - a detour in life - not as a failure.
