We can choose failure, but we can’t choose fear. That’s like what James Cameron said “Failure Is an Option, but Fear Is Not” at the end of his TED talk and I love it. We shouldn’t be afraid of facing failure, try to accept it and learn from it.

Make room for failure

Nobody wants to fail, but failure is often on your way to success. Geprge Bernard Shaw said, “A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable(可敬的), but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.” So if you never fail then it probably means that you do nothing. Failure shows that you actually do something instead of just sitting in your comfortable seat.

Learn from each failure

Don’t just fail and get nothing out of it. Learn something from each failure that makes you better and better.

Fail fast

Time is precious, so if you failed then you’d better fail fast. Why? Because it will make you learn and improve faster. Don’t wait until everything is perfect. Instead, test your idea in the real world as soon as possible.

Don’t choose fear

Many people don’t want to work on something unknown. But fear is not a good choice, so you should be willing to try out your new ideas. Even if you aren’t successful, you will still come out better than before.

One morning Mrs. Andrews made some sausage sandwiches for her husband’s lunch. There was one sausage left over. Mrs. Andrews didn’t like sausages herself and so she gave the last one to Henry, their little dog. Henry ate it up quickly.

During the morning the dog got ill. He wouldn’t stop shaking his head and he couldn’t stand up properly. Mrs. Andrews thought, “He has eaten something that didn't agree with him. Maybe that sausage was bad…” She suddenly remembered her husband’s lunch and called him at the office.

“Jim, I hope you haven’t eaten any of those sandwiches yet.”

“Yes, I have…”

“You have ? Well. Listen, don’t eat any more. I gave Henry the last sausage and now he’s ill . Go to the doctor, Jim. Tell the doctor about the dog. Get some medicine at once.”

Jim came home at lunchtime and went to bed. “I have a very unpleasant hour with the doctor .” He told his wife. “ The medicine made me very sick.”

The next morning Jim was fine. Henry seemed quite well again, too. At eleven o’clock the milkman came with the milk.

“Good morning, Mrs. Andrews,” the milkman said. “How is your dog this morning? I have been thinking about him…”
