Sure, nobody wants to fail. But failure or rather, falling, is often encountered on the rocky road to success. For the overall or ultimate outcome, failure is not an option.

But dealing with failure or rising up each and everytime we fall makes us stronger. In short, how sweet it is when failure is transformed from a temporary setback to a secret component of success, whether you are in the cities like Manila, Cebu, and Quezon City; in the rural areas like Batanes, Caramoan, and Palawan; or in far from home places where Pinoy OFWs and immigrants work in all kinds of jobs for their loved ones. When one is not yet successful, even loved ones label your work as part of your silly love songs. But when one is already successful, the "reality-driven theory of relativity" (isn't it usually the case - the more successful you are, the more relatives you have?) becomes operational!

Remember even great inventors like Edison looked at failure as just a stepping stone (remember: when he failed, he just shrugged it off as just finding out another way not to do when finding the right process on his way to inventing the incandescent light bulb). While failure is not an option, realizing that failure is often a part of success can be the game changer in your life.
