00:00Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who've had the most failures.
00:04J.K. Rawlings, who wrote Harry Potter.
00:08Her first Harry Potter book was rejected 12 times before it was finally published.
00:14Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team.
00:18He lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career.
00:23But he once said, I have failed over and over and over again in my life, and that's why I
00:29succeed.
00:32These people succeeded because they understood that you can't let your failures define you.
00:38You have to let your failures teach you.
00:41You have to let them show you what to do differently the next time.
