“Failures are infinitely more instructive than successes.”
— George Clooney
Simplified Meaning:
When things don't go well, we often learn more than when everything goes perfectly. Imagine trying to bake a cake. If it turns out terrible, you find out what went wrong—maybe you used too much flour or not enough sugar. Next time, you’ll know how to fix those mistakes. If the cake was perfect the first time, you might not learn these important lessons. In history, think about Thomas Edison, who tested thousands of materials before finding the right one for a lightbulb. His failures showed him what didn't work, guiding him to the final success. If we only experienced success without any failures, we wouldn’t get the chance to explore and understand things deeply. When something goes wrong, it’s a chance to reflect, make changes, and improve. By facing and analyzing our failures, we become better and smarter in the future.
