The following excerpt is from Hellen Buttigeig's April 2008 organizing newsletter. I really believe it's a life lesson.
'Quick Tips on Organizing Your Life:
Failure is part of the model
Are you afraid to try new things or take any risks because you might fail? Think about how many times you had to fall off your bike before you learned how to ride it. If you ever participated in sports, think about how many times you had to kick the ball before you got it in the net. I remember how many times I fell on my tush before I learned how to skate. All these examples illustrate that failure is part of the learning model; without it, there is no way to succeed. Don't be afraid of failure; welcome it as part of the process. Consider this: if you never fail, you probably don't take enough risks.'
