00:00have you ever failed at something so badly that you thought you'd never
00:03recover
00:04maybe it was a business that didn't work out it's a part of life
00:08but here s what they dante teach you in school
00:12failure is not the end fact it's often the beginning
00:15relationship that ended painfully every successful person you admire
00:20whether it's Elon Musk Oprah Winfrey
00:23Michael Jordan or Steve Jobs has failed
00:26out not once but over and over again
00:30an exam you didn't pass or a dream that slipped through your fingers
00:34we all fail welcome to the idea of failing forward
00:38the powerful mindset that every setback is a setup for a greater comeback
00:42he lost almost 300 games they take weeks
00:46months even years to recover successful people
00:50they get up faster yes it hurts people who say you've got this
00:54keep going this isn't your ending
00:57so be careful who you listen to
00:59not everyone deserves a seat at your comeback table
01:03but staying stuck doesn't heal you
01:05you are planted and now it's time to grow
01:08your purpose is still alive
01:10don't throw away the vision just because the path got hard
01:13comebacks happen when we hold the vision tighter than the fear of failing again
01:18pick yourself up
01:19you are what you choose to become after the storm
01:21so if you're going through a setback right now hear me clearly
01:25this is not the end
01:27this is your turning point
01:28this is your moment to rise
01:30take a breath reset
01:31then take the next step forward
01:33no matter how small
01:34progress beats perfection
01:37every time
01:38when a reporter asked him how it felt to fail a thousand times
01:42he replied
01:43I didn't fail a thousand times
01:45the light bulb was an invention with one thousand steps
01:49now that's failing forward it's not about avoiding failure
01:52it's about mastering the art of bouncing back stronger
01:54twenty-six times he was trusted to take the game-winning shot and he missed
01:59it takes courage
02:00you will turn your setback into the greatest comeback of your life
02:03it takes humility
02:05and it takes faith in yourself when the world is doubting you
02:08but he didn't stop
02:10he failed forward
02:11when we fail
02:12most of us stop
02:13we freeze
02:14we doubt ourselves
02:17we start telling ourselves stories like
02:19i'm not good enough
02:21talk about it reflect on it
02:22because when you face it honestly
02:24it loses its power over you
02:27ask yourself
02:28what did i learn from this experience
02:30what will i do differently next time
02:33how did this make me stronger
02:35this process turns pain into wisdom
02:37i'll never succeed
02:38i should have known better
02:40but here s the truth
02:42failure is not the opposite of success
02:45it's part of the path to success
02:47think about it
02:48michael jordan missed over 9 000 shots in his career
02:52you see failing forward means learning
02:54adjusting
02:55and rising every time you fall
02:57failure is not a dead end
02:59it's data
03:00it's feedback
03:01when something doesn't work
03:02don't say i'm a failure
03:04say i just found one way that doesn't work
03:07thomas edison made one thousand unsuccessful attempts at inventing the light bulb
03:11don't hide your failure
03:13own it
03:13most people stay down after a fall
03:16when you're in the middle of a setback
03:17you need people around you who won't let you quit
03:20failure has a way of blinding us
03:22makes us forget why we started
03:24but your dream still matters
03:26your goal is still possible
03:28let me tell you something powerful
03:30you are not your failure
03:31you are not your mistake
03:33you are not what happened to you
03:34you're not buried
03:36failing forward is not easy
03:37if you keep moving
03:39if you keep growing
03:40if you keep showing up
03:41so don't give up
03:43your story is still being written
03:44in the best chapters
03:45you're still ahead of you
