Successful individuals have an observed tendency to approach failure with an attitude and mindset that can appropriately be described as being wise. Instead of avoiding and fearing failure, they view their failures as opportunities to learn from their mistakes, and to see their setbacks as stepping stones to their eventual success. Failure does not lead to giving up, but rather to learning from experience and being challenged to keep trying and to do better.
