hello everyone I am here to talk about
the f-word
you probably heard it earlier today from
your friends your teachers your family
you yourself have probably used it once
or twice two or three hundred times yes
failure actually my friend had asked me
to compile a list of all the failures
that I’ve endured in life and here it is
I’m just kidding
now put your hand up if you have
experienced failure yeah mom your hand
up now I have a step-by-step guide on
how to stand up brush that failure off
and keep on going
step one fail failure is absolutely
inevitable
at least once in your lifetime you will
fail at something in fact the most
successful people of our time have
failed like JK Rowling Steve Jobs Walt
Disney and so on it separates the weak
from the strong the scared from the
brave some encounter one fault and give
up on all their goals while others fall
over and over but every time they get
back up they gain incredible strenght
failure shouldn’t break or stop you it
should only push you to keep moving
forward you might realize that the path
you’re on right now is not the right one
and that’s okay you can then expand and
find out new paths that are right for
you but if you never fail you might
never even consider pursuing different
avenues you would just continue down the
wrong path like my dad always said make
sure your path is in the direction you
want to go unless you want to go to the
washroom the washrooms to the left
step to accept and overcome every single
time I listen to an inspirational speech
I never cease to hear overcome your
failures overcome your fears overcome
your weaknesses but rarely do they tell
us how to that speech wasn’t helpful and
it definitely wasn’t inspirational
overcoming your weakness begins with you
it begins with you accepting it
don’t hide cover or deny the fact that
you’re weak if you want to overcome your
weakness you need to admit it for
example when I was in elementary school
I was very quiet and very timid I
wouldn’t talk to my teachers let alone
make friends so one day I thought to
myself hmmm why don’t I have that many
friends I mean look at me so I thought
to myself why don’t I have that many
friends and it was because I was scared
and that was my weakness so when I went
to entered high school I was a
completely different person if you went
back to my elementary school and told
them that I participated in a TED talk
in front of almost 100 people they’d be
like oh my god that’s amazing
pretty I can talk now hold up one finger
preferably this one thank you and now
hold pressure ear I saw a lot of you
guys fail now clap your hands once clap
your hands twice now every time I cross
my hands clap your hand cup her hands
you all failed ok let’s try it one more
time ok just one more time ready 1 2 3
see you all failed but you accepted it
don’t hide accepted it so all you do is
take the same concept and apply it to
your own situation or problem
step 3 create a plan pain is temporary
at times it can last for only a minute
but sometimes it can last for an entire
year but eventually this pain will
subside and be replaced with something
much better and much stronger let’s face
it if you want something done right you
need a plan once you have a plan you
need to put hard work into it and make
sure you believe that you can accomplish
anything for example let’s say you would
like to get an A in your physics class
first you think of a goal I’d like to
raise my grade by 10 percent a whopping
10 by the end of this month then with
that goal in mind every day you can
slightly improve to reach that goal like
how often you study how you can change
your studying habits when to take breaks
when to take breaks during breaks
because let’s be honest who doesn’t and
so on step 4 be confident have
confidence in your friends and your
family and your teachers and in your
co-workers but most importantly have
confidence in yourself self-confidence
what is self confidence self confidence
is the ability or belief to believe
yourself no matter the no matter the
odds difficulty or adversity don’t be
scared to speak your mind and be brave
now let’s go back in time okay December
21st 1967 the infamous Apollo one rocket
ship took off from Cape Canaveral and
landed in Cape Canaveral the NASA
Corporation was devastated but they
didn’t lose their faith or their
confidence
two years later Apollo 11 had landed on
the moon and they had reached success
confidence is what kept them moving
forward confidence is what test your
limits and teaches you to exceed them
confidence is what gives you the ability
to succeed remember
step one is fail failure
step two is accepted and overcome step
three is create a plan and step four is
to be confident keep going till your
last breath till you achieve what you
want and will receive anyone who has
accomplished anything in life has fallen
and it doesn’t mean that person isn’t
you thank you
