Failure is our friend
Sometimes failure can lead us to success by showing us that we are not good at something.
The fashion designer Vera Wang, for example, found a path to success, thanks to her failure.
At the age of seven, she began devoting herself to figure skating, hoping to compete in the Olympics.
When she was 19, however, she failed to make the U.S. Olympic team and quit figure skating.
She experienced a brutal letdown.
While staying in Paris, she happened to discover her passion for and talent in fashion design, which led her to move to fashion as a career.
After returning to America, she started working as a salesperson in a clothing store.
Developing her career from editor of a fashion magazine to design director for a global brand for about 20 years, she eventually ended up designing clothes on her own.
Today, Vera Wang is a world-famous designer whose elegant dresses are sought after by celebrities the world over.
