We should never try to explain our failures. Nobody is interested in the story or the sequence of events that culminated in that failure. Also the explanation how true or rational it may ever be, somehow helps us to settle the angst and distress caused by that failure in the inner recesses of our heart. Actually that is not good for us. If the angst does not settle but continues to swell and irks our mind we will soon enter into a phase of positive agitation which will in turn evolve into a strong motivational force. This constant surge of motivation propels the engine of success also has a snow balling effect. That is why the ever true axiom ‘failures are the pillar of success’ is so true.
