You know what's great about failure? If you have the right mindset you can take each failure and turn it into small successes. You can't be so hard on yourself, but you can also take each failure as a lesson on how to improve.

None of your peers built the dreams they had in a day either. They have their own stories behind them with a series of failures and challenges you never got to see. So don't count yourself out yet. Just focus on the step in front of you, and don't obssess over the people running beside you.

If you're always looking at the people behind you (the past) or the people beside you (the present) who is driving you forward? (Your future.)
