In my lifetime, I have tried many things that interest me, and so far, all I've succeeded in is the job I do for a lviing.
I lost money in the stock market, but kept right with it, so I have made gains as well.
I bought and raced a racehorse. He won three races but never did pay for himself.
I've painted over 100 oil paintings. Only was paid for three of them.
I was downsized out of a job I held for almost twenty years.
In sum, my life has been mostly failures and yet I believe I learned something from them, and don't consider myself a failure.
Would anyone want to keep trying in the hope of hitting it right and becoming very successful?
Or, are you just afraid to take a risk because the competiton is too tough?
