T.C. PetersonNobody intentionally sets out to fail or dwell in mediocrity.
About This Quote
Sometimes, our own failures are more than we can handle on our own. It’s easy to say that you’re not good at something and that you’ll never be good at it. You may even want to give up. But, no one says that they want to fail.
A failure is something that has happened because of the way you chose to do something (e.g., missed a deadline) or because of a circumstance beyond your control (e.g., broken a machine). Like a person, a failure has a choice in how it will respond to its circumstances.
