“Failure is instructive. The person who really thinks learns quite as much from his failures as from his successes”
— John Dewey

Simplified Meaning:
When things don't go the way we want, we can learn a lot from these experiences. Treating mistakes as lessons helps us understand what went wrong and how to do better next time. For example, imagine you are learning to ride a bike. At first, you might fall a few times. Each fall teaches you something important, like how to keep your balance or steer to avoid obstacles. In the same way, when you fail at something in life, it gives you a chance to think carefully about what happened and improve. This thoughtful approach helps you grow just as much as when you succeed. Remember, every failure is a step toward getting better.
