Did you know that lions only succeed in catching their prey around 25% of the time?
That statistic is fairly common amongst all predators.
But even though they often fail in their attempts to hunt, animals don’t despair or give up – they’d starve if they did!
The fact they accept this is due to a natural law that is instinctively built into all-natural living organisms.
Research has shown that animals and plants are designed to allow for these natural wasted efforts.
It’s only humans that tend to get despondent or anxious if we believe we have failed in our attempts to achieve something. But, the truth is failure is a natural part of life, and we only truly fail if we stop trying.
Being successful does not mean you have a perfect life where everything runs according to plan. It means you accept that many of the things you do will not result in success but you learn from those mistakes and look forward to the next opportunity. And you don’t give up, you persist, until you achieve your aim.
Babe Ruth’s career is a great illustration of this law. 70 years after his death he is still talked about as being the greatest baseball player ever. During his career, he hit 714 home runs. But what is not talked about is that he actually struck out and ‘failed’ 1330 times (a record he held for 30 years).
These failures didn’t stop him from becoming one of the world’s greatest sporting legends. In fact, it could be argued that it was his willingness to fail that led to his great success.
So keep trying and accept the failures if you want to get the wins you desire. Persistence is key!
