I don't think there is such a thing as failure.
Things either are or they aren't - people either will or they won't.
The end.

The true nature of failure is jealousy
nobody can become a failure unless they are jeolous. a true failure would be someone that couldn't be happy for the other person.
Example- You were challenging a friend at something and he/she won but you couldn't control yourself because you wanted to win, so when they wanted to come and talk to you, you didn't tell how you really felt (jealous) but you wanted to win and be the special one shining out of this world.- that would be the true nature of failure!:)

Makes me think of the quote "Better to have tried and failed, than to have never tried at all."
To be a failure means to let fear overtake you to the point you will not or cannot try anymore.
Feeling like a failure is awful.

The below is from the link I have posted:
Failure (or flop) in general refers to the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective. It may be viewed as the opposite of success.
One can state that humans learn more from failure, pain and sacrifice than though success and easy rewards.

To be a failure is to never have tried.

To be a failure is to give up and accept defeat. If you don't do that, you can't be a failure.

In this material world we are all trying to be God. So many imitation gods. But the fact is that we are not God and we can never become God. So in everything we do we will ultimately be failure, we will just be smashed in all our attempts to enjoy in this material world. Whatever arrangement we make, we will just be smashed, we will fall flat on our face. The point is that we should not try to be God, but rather try to be His servants, please Him and serve Him with love and devotion, otherwise we are just suffering by being smashed again and again by the material energy.

"Success is a peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing that YOU did YOUR best to become the best that YOU'RE capable of becoming."
failure is when you dont give all your effort to become the best that you can be
