Failure is not final if you don’t allow it to be.
Often the mistakes or failures that we have also have learning lessons that I can grow bigger and better from.
There’s a maybe somewhat inaccurate statistics that floats around the business world that 7 out of 10 businesses fail within the first 5 years. I’m not sure exactly what the real statistic is but there’s also this quote that goes…
7 out of 10 businesses fail, so I started 8 businesses.
It’s a great reminder that sometimes it’s just about efficiency and not quitting.
PS…I’m 5 years into business #4
