Many people view failure as shameful and something to avoid at all costs, but this quote reframes resilience and recovery as more admirable than perfection. No one's path to success is without setbacks, mistakes, and failures. The distinction between those who ultimately succeed and those who don't isn't absence of failure but response to it. Rising after falling demonstrates courage, determination, and character far more impressive than never facing difficulties. Each time we fall and choose to rise, we strengthen resilience, learn valuable lessons, and prove to ourselves that we can handle adversity. This builds psychological capital that serves us throughout life. Moreover, attempting challenging things that risk failure is evidence of ambition and courage; playing it safe to avoid falling is evidence of fear. The person who fails repeatedly while continuing to try is living more fully and courageously than the person who never fails because they never try. Take pride not in never falling but in always rising.
