Dear Steemit friends and followers,
I would like to share another interesting quote with you today.

"If you learn from defeat, you haven´t really lost."
What do you think of this inspirational quote? What is your attitude to defeats or failures in life? Have you experienced a defeat that later helped you achieve something that you would never achieve if there had not been for that defeat?
Let me know in the comments, I am looking forward to reading your opinions and stories :)
Have a wonderful day and Steem on!

the sad part about people is when they lost they gave up, once they gave up they never learn their lesson and they stop climbing to the top(you know what i mean)
the reason why Thomas Edison invented the bulb is he figure out the 1000 ways that doesn't work, without learning from it he would have never invented it. failure can be a blessing if you learned from it, and it can be a curse if you haven't learn from it. :)
Failure is an early foothold for success. If we are desperate and give up when we fail, we lose our footing to succeed. The failures that we experience are a stepping stone to success. So it depends on how to respond to failure. We will completely fail forever if we stop and give up, or we will achieve success if we continue to fight tirelessly and never give up when faced with failure. Do not be afraid of failure, but be afraid if we give up when faced with failure. Because we will really fail if we give up in the face of failure.
Great motivation. If you learn a lesson from defeat you have not lost. Those who believe they know everything are usually the ones who could stand to learn something. Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure! Thank you for stopping by and reading the post!
Too err is human. We do a lot of mistake which cause defeat. But defeat is not the end of world it give you new lesson which help you to become successful so as long you learn from your defeat you are on right track. Defeat is the first step of success. All we need to show patience and don't commit same mistake again and again. In my honest opinion no one defeat in life unless he accept the defeat. Have a nice time @czechglobalhosts
Absolutely agreed. Have a good one!
Every defeat is a victory if you learn from it. also we can say that defeat can be a device, if you just learn from the last one. By the way keep sharing valuable posts like this. stay blessed <3
Absolutely! Thank you for stopping by. Tomas
Failure is common in human nature. We are all wrong in something. People who have reached the top have failed in many ways. There is a simple example: how do you know about joy if you have not felt sadness? What is really going to teach you are the mistakes, you will not only learn but you will become stronger and more resistant.
Nicely said! Thank you for sharing some aditional thoughts on the subject! I love it. Tomas
Very true. A lot of people are too scared of failure, try to avoid it, and are broken down when they do. I am not afraid to lose, because I know with every loss I learn one thing to avoid on my way to success. Thanks
I am very happy to hear that you go by that rule! Great job.
I believe that we always get out stronger and wiser after a defeat, that's the way I see it.
I've had so much defeats in the past that helped me learn soo many important things in life.
Thanks for the quote @czechglobalhosts, it's a really inspiring one!
Glad to hear you were able to learn from you past defeat and mistakes. The learning curve is long and difficult but it does pay off greatly in the end.
For sure my friend! But many people only see the negativity, right? I see it a lot in relationships and it happened to me in the past...
Relationship ends, but people only focus on the bad situations in which culminated to the break up. I did the inverse, I focused on all the great things I've learned from the relationship, like becoming more confident for example.
I've written in some of my travel stories about how I put myself into difficult situations, on pourpose hahahhaahaha, that way I can analyse and learn how to deal with myself and the situation.
Very sad to lose such a great man, but at least his wisdom lives on via his writings and quotes. Here’s one of my favourite quotes by Zig.
“Other people and things can stop you temporarily. You’re the only one who can do it permanently.”
Yeah, I know. Also glad to know you liked his work and enjyed his quote.
The quote is so inspiring and it can be taken by 2 points pf view
1- if i want to be optimistic and to lie a little bit on myself i can say that i didn’t lose i learned from my defeat but that doesn’t mean that i didn’t lose literally i’de rather ti say i lost this round but i gained more experience and i will win next time.
2- i can be also optimistic and confess by this defeat and remember that tomorrow is another day and life most go on.
But ofcourse i have not stop at this point and give up i have always be optimist even if i lost
Thank u @czechglobalhosts for sharing this post
Keep the momentum going and your optimism high and you will go a long way. Kudos to you!
Thank u for sharing such nice quotes great job
One of the most finest cricket Captain the world has ever seen Great Imran Khan once said,
I do 100% that it is not a big deal or loss if you have bee defeated in your life. Actually you discover different way to achieve your milestones in the life. It is not success that teaches you rather it is defeat which helps to build stamina to win :)
We have all experience defeat in one way or the other, but the lesson learn from the defeat makes it a win.
One defeat that change my life is when I failed and had to repeat a class, repeating the class expose me to a new level of knowledge, the repeat made me understand things I never knew and turn my academic career around today I am a great scholar, thanks to the failure/defeat.
Assuming the defeat wasn't so egregious that you can fight another day...
Dead warriors can't learn.
What we call defeat was actually life's lessons, we could call them teachers cos they teach us to be better.
@czechglobalhosts, Absolutely brilliant motivation quote shared. Actually if we attend some game has two options. one of win and other is loss. Decision on our hand. But we can't win every time those game. Life condition also same situation. If we loss first, try to win next goal in our life. How it will? We have seek better solution and find our week points using past lost experience. Then we try to prepare plan win life however. In fact definitely we haven't lost and we win through our losing. Still our life journey need to loss or failures. It mean someday we'll win our success.
Quote of the day: "If you learn from defeat, you haven´t really lost."
This not only speaks volume, but alsoI encourages.
Very true. "In victory we deserve it, in defeat we need it" Many times we must fall and learn the lesson and improve every day. Even a defeat may mean that we do not try hard enough to achieve our goals, which implies that we must work hard to achieve it.
I agree! This phrase reminds me of "the man who gets up is even bigger than the one who has not fallen" I think that from defeats we learn and that we must go through them to learn and not make the same mistakes again in the future, also to be better people every day.
You have a lot of similarities with this post......In fact, some people in our society fail to do any work, they become frustrated, and if others come under their control then they will be able to see the light of hope........I think success is achieved from failure.............
good job
After the post, I really learned to win something new today.
thank you.
Good Job
I like your post
Yes, totally agree. Defeats are blessings in disquise. I think even steem price is a good metaphore for it, don't you agree?
When I face a defeat, I try to learn and make adjustment along the way!
It is very true, also leads us to the reflection that our defects really drive us to change.....Good phrase
Your post is always different i follow your blog everytime , your post is so helpful . I always inspire of your post on my steem work . Thank you for sharing @czechglobalhosts

We are human, we should make mistakes and wrong path.We are not Angels who can do the thing right from very beginning. We have to accept it and look forward.
Man can be destroyed, but not defeated. (Hemingway)
Indeed the every mistake teach you the best lesson of your life in a same way defeat gives you hope of win and those who defeated grow more stronger where they never lose and become a real winner. Every defeat is the beginning of never ending victory @czechglobalhosts
In general i agree. So many times what is called defeat is just an option that most people hate, but you might not. Sometimes defeat is just a checkpoint on the way to success, and sometimes it just tell us that we should change our path.
I really like your post, very motivated for me @czechglobalhosts
That's an amazing quote. If you learn from the defeat you have won a lesson. And lessons from the experiences are ones best friends. They help you get better in the future.
Sometimes we feel defeated so we can become conscious of our actions and inactions.
I contested for a vice presidential postion and lost. The following year, I stood for the main presidency and won hands down. Sometimes our failures are just to make way for greater heights and opportunities. We never lose but learn lessons.
Very very inspirational! I believe those who have never seen failures do not know the taste of the success. We need to learn from our failures and shouldn't repeat those things which were causing it. Ultimately you will win.
Back in my University days. I lost an election in my 2nd year, I looked at where I made a mistake and fixed it and the following year won a bigger office.
When one gets defeated, the ability to always get back up makes one a victor.
