I was on my bed this morning after waking up from sleep, then thoughts started coming to me, I was just there on my bed wondering about the thought people have, the mindset, and the way people just give up easily due to lack of understanding.
There is great difference between understanding and knowing which I wrote on my post

What I'm about to share with you guys is something you should apply in your daily lives, because a friend of mine told me that KNOWLEDGE IS POWER hmm........ but I disagree, I believe that APPLIED KNOWLEDGE IS POWER because you might have a knowledge about something and it's just with you, nothing changes for example, you were taught how to drive a car maybe you were taught the theoretical aspect alone, the truth is that whatever you might be taught or told that is just what you know, if you were told that in driving a car, first of all you need to do is to slot the key into the ignition, start it then make sure your two hands are on the steering when driving, observe your side mirror bla. bla.. bla....
The truth is that you will never drive the car until the day you apply what you were taught, if possible you may not even get it as perfect as you were taught, only continuous application of what you were taught makes you perfect.
People say when you fail, you are automatically a failure.
I disagree.......
FAILURE : is a weakness or fault
That is the simplest definition, it's just a weakness or default settings of the mind(a mindset).
The truth is, when you FAIL it gives or brings you an opportunity in which you get better, learn from your mistakes and then you become strengthened in your weak areas in order to improve.
BUT
FAILURE : is simply define as lack of success in doing or achieving. A person that is not successful.
N|B: when you fail it can be corrected but when you are a failure, Hmmmmmmm...
I think it requires a divine intervention.
Maybe you are a student or an entrepreneur and your academics or your business is not going well as planned, my advice to you is to never give up, because you failing does not makes nor guarantee you a failure.
Listen to me "YOU ARE A SUCCESS"

I don't know if you are familiarised with SWOT Analysis technique. I can talk about this terms maybe one day without intreruption. So even if SWOT Analysis it is applicable in business and management, this can be applied also to any individual. S.W.O.T. is an acronym that stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. A SWOT analysis is an organized list of your business’s greatest strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.
Strengths and weaknesses are internal to the company (think: reputation, patents, location). You can change them over time but not without some work. Opportunities and threats are external (think: suppliers, competitors, prices)—they are out there in the market, happening whether you like it or not. You can’t change them.
So you can apply SWOT Analysis for yourself and from failure you can cross to successfuly man or woman without discriminations. Anyway divine intervention it is the last chance to succeed. Because the GOD said "am the true path and life."
Sure
