The problem is that most people focus on their failures rather than their successes. But the truth is that most people have many more successes than failures.

Jack Canfield

Failure is instructive. The person who really thinks learns quite as much from his failures as from his successes.

John Dewey

As athletes, we're defined by what we've accomplished. Those are what most people remember and what you get paid for. But I learned more from my failures than from all of my successes put together - failures as an athlete and as a person.

Dan O'Brien

Understanding what and why did not work may be more instructive than celebrating our successes.

Mikhail Leonidovich Gromov

I have learnt more from my failures than my successes.

Richard Branson

The longer I live the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company . . . a church . . . a home.

Charles R. Swindoll

I've concluded that I learned far more from my failures than from my successes.

Peace Pilgrim

In diplomacy, as in life itself, one often learns more from failures than from successes. Triumphs will seem, in retrospect, to be foreordained, a series of brilliant actions and decisions that may in fact have been lucky or inadvertent, whereas failures illuminate paths and pitfalls to be avoided.

Richard Holbrooke

There's so many more failures than successes for actors. It's like a phobia, fear of cancellation.

Rick Hoffman

With stand-up, it's more interesting to hear about people's failures than their successes.

Aziz Ansari

Progress is made by trial and failure; the failures are generally a hundred times more numerous than the successes ; yet they are usually left unchronicled.

William Ramsay

I have had many successes and many failures in my life. My successes have always been for different reasons, but my failures have always been for the same reason: I said yes when I meant no.
