In order to draw larger quantum of water for irrigation, the grandfather along with his grandchild started to dig into their shallow well.
After he devoted sufficient hard work, he couldn’t reach water bed but faced with rocky bed. Disgusted and vexed by failure, the grandfather said, “Everything went waste. My energy got wasted and dissipated in useless manner!”
The child spoke with childish chirrup, “Papa! When I farm, I won’t dig out for water from this place.” A spark of wisdom stroke in grandfather’s mind: “My failure has taught a lesson to my future generations.”
So, he organized his life acquaintances into a resourceful book by which his future generations learnt ways to succeed with little failures.
Failure will clear our way towards success. For everything we have missed, we have gained something else. If we learn from our failures, we are an intelligent. If we learn from others failures, we are a genius. People who understand success never underestimate failures. When we succeed stimulate heart, when we fail put our head in action. Biggest doers once faced with biggest failures. “Failure” who had repeatedly experienced will understand it as “delayed success.” We discover ourselves from success, we change ourselves through failures.
