TURNING SETBACKS INTO SUCCESS<\/p>\n
Changing our perspective is often the key to finding success in seeming failure. Optimistic thinking can sometimes feel unrealistic, but research has found that we can live happier, healthier, and more successful lives if we can learn to discover the opportunities in failures. We learn something each time we fail! Failure can be an opportunity for personal growth.<\/p>\n
Think of the times that you have set a goal to lose weight, increase exercise, get more sleep, or reduce the stress in your life. How many times did you have to try before you were successful? Probably several. That is because success takes practice! Do not become discouraged if you set goals that you have not reached. You have learned more than you know by simply trying! Build on what you have learned, make necessary adjustments, and figure out what got in the way, then try again. It may take several attempts before a goal is reached, the important thing is to keep trying!<\/p>\n
