Don't be afraid of Failure
Your CV didn't get short listed; you didn’t get the job you hoped for; you didn’t get the raise you deserved. Don't be afraid of failure because
"Edison failed 10, 000 times before he made the electric light. Do not be discouraged if you fail a few times." -- Napoleon Hill

Failure can help you grow stronger and motivate you more to achieve your dreams.
Successful people know that things won't always go as planned. They also understand that self-doubt, indecision, being over cautious, and procrastination, etc are symptoms of fear that can stall their progress. It is through doing, trying, and experiencing things you never did before that you grow and develop.

Failure can make you think differently or take a different path to get to where you want to be.
Ask the right questions -- what did I do wrong? how can I do it differently?, what changes should I make?, what can I do to improve?, what are my strengths and what are my weaknesses?, where can I get help?, etc.
Failure can teach you valuable lessons of "what not to do" or how to identify potential pitfalls.
Always give what others need before you take what you need.
If you have not failed means you have not pushed yourself to the next level. Motivate yourself to continuously improve your competencies. I am a strong believer of the following quote from
David Maiser.

“The people who win are not necessarily the smartest people, but they are the people who are able to sustain drive, commitment, passion and engagement”
