1 There is a famous saying: failure is the mother of success. But life isn’t always that simple. What if failure is followed by more failure, and success never appears
2 It was the 2004 Olympic Games. Twenty-three-year-old Matthew Emmons had one gold medal already. He raised his gun. With nine perfect shots in hand, he could win another gold medal with his eyes closed. Bang! Oh no! He missed… and shot someone else’s target! He ended the Olympic Games without a second medal around his neck.
3 But Emmons refused to give up. He allowed himself to be sad for just one night. Then he went back to training hard. He aimed once more at being an Olympic champion.
4 However, over the years, bad luck stuck to him like glue. History repeated itself at the Beijing Olympics. He missed another shot and lost out on the gold medal. And life handed him more challenges. He was told that he had cancer. He got through the disease, but he never made it as an Olympic champion again in his sporting life.
5 Some might consider Emmons one of the unluckiest athletes in history. But Emmons wouldn’t agree. He always looks at life on the bright side. For him, those failures have made his life rich. On that night in 2004, after missing the shot, he went out with some friends. That’s when he met his future wife. And while he was unlucky to have cancer, he took it as a chance to spend time with his family. He didn’t win all the medals, but he is a winner at what really counts – life!
6 It’s important to learn lessons from failures. And it is equally important to accept them. When you’ve tried your best, just smile and enjoy the journey. Failure does not always bring success, but it can always help you grow. Remember that “success” and “win” don’t mean the same thing. Success is so much more than that.
