My big philosophy is: Try and work with good people because the process is your life. That's going to be really really hard. I'm glad I learned the lesson 'Failure is OK.'
I saw why people died and how they died. I saw gunshot wounds and liver failure. It was a good learning experience so I came regularly on weekends and holidays.
The great thing about baseball is the causality is easy to determine and it always falls on the shoulders of one person. So there is absolute responsibility. That's why baseball is psychologically the cruelest sport and why it really requires psychological resources to play baseball - because you have to learn to live with failure.
I think success has no rules but you can learn a great deal from failure.
Enjoy failure and learn from it. You can never learn from success.
I've had a lot of success I've had failures so I learn from the failure.
With everything that is complex we learn. If you don't learn then it's an utter and abject failure. If you do learn and you're able to apply that to the next situation then you take away a measure of success.
I'm sure not afraid of success and I've learned not to be afraid of failure. The only thing I'm afraid of now is of being someone I don't like much.
I mean I love L.A. - I love living here. But I wish that we could make things without the need to hit a home run every single time. It's a unique thing to Hollywood that if you don't do that every time then you're considered a failure. But it's like 'Well are you making movies to be successful? Or are you making movies to learn something?'
I was taught that to create anything you had to believe in failure simply because you had to be prepared to go through an idea without any fear. Failure you learned as I did in art school to be a wonderful thing. It allowed you to get up in the morning and take the pillow off your head.
There are no mistakes save one: the failure to learn from a mistake.
The person interested in success has to learn to view failure as a healthy inevitable part of the process of getting to the top.
We need to teach the highly educated man that it is not a disgrace to fail and that he must analyze every failure to find its cause. He must learn how to fail intelligently for failing is one of the greatest arts in the world.
We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do by finding out what will not do and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.
One of the reasons people stop learning is that they become less and less willing to risk failure.
Failure is instructive. The person who really thinks learns quite as much from his failures as from his successes.
Failure is a great teacher and I think when you make mistakes and you recover from them and you treat them as valuable learning experiences then you've got something to share.
There's always failure. And there's always disappointment. And there's always loss. But the secret is learning from the loss and realizing that none of those holes are vacuums.
Failure is success if we learn from it.
Remember the two benefits of failure. First if you do fail you learn what doesn't work and second the failure gives you the opportunity to try a new approach.
Do not be embarrassed by your failures learn from them and start again.
Winning is great sure but if you are really going to do something in life the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat and go on to win again you are going to be a champion someday.
Success is the result of perfection hard work learning from failure loyalty and persistence.
If you learn from defeat you haven't really lost.
