Failure is inevitable if we are to succeed in life. Unfortunately, many people do not know how to overcome failure, and they are stopped by it when they encounter one. The ability to overcome failure is one big difference between successful and mediocre people. Here are some tips to help you overcome failure:
如果我們想要在生活中獲得成功，失敗就是不可避免的。然而，我們很多人在遇到失敗的時候，都不知道如何去戰勝它，只好停滯不前。成功人士和平庸的人的區別就在於他們戰勝失敗的能力。下面就介紹一些如何戰勝失敗的好方法。
1. Rise up and don’t regret
站起來不後悔
A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.——George Bernard Shaw
比起一輩子的碌碌無為，犯錯不僅光榮，而且有益。——蕭伯納
When we fail, we might be tempted to think that we have wasted our time and thus regret it. But that’s should not be the case. The fact that you have done something is much better than doing nothing. Rise up and move on. The regret lies not in doing, but in not doing.
當我們遭遇失敗的時候，我們可能會後悔自己浪費了那麼多的時間去做一件失敗的事情。但事實並不是這樣的，去做永遠比不做好。失敗了，就再站起來，繼續前行。我們不應該後悔去做了什麼事，而是要後悔沒去做什麼事。
2. Understand that failure is there to bring you wisdom
失敗可以帶來智慧
Good people are good because they』ve come to wisdom through failure.——William Saroyan
優秀的人之所以優秀是因為他們能從失敗中獲得智慧。——威廉·薩洛揚（美國小說家、劇作家）
Failure is there not without a reason. It’s there to give you the wisdom you need to succeed. Each failure you encounter increases your wisdom and brings you one step closer to success. If you have this mindset, you will see failure differently. You will see each failure as an opportunity to learn.
失敗總是有原因的，它會帶給你成功所需要的智慧。每一次的失敗都會增長你的智慧，帶領你向成功更進一步。如果你有這樣的覺悟，那麼你就能從另一個角度來看待失敗：失敗其實是一次學習的機會。
3. Learn as much as possible from the failure
從失敗中多多學習
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.——Albert Einstein
向昨天學習,為了今天而活,為了明天而充滿希望。——愛因斯坦
While failure brings you wisdom, how much wisdom you will get depends entirely on your ability to harvest it. So don’t waste the opportunity to learn; harvest wisdom as much as possible from the failure. If you fail to do this, you may waste a lot of time by repeating the same mistakes in the future.
失敗給你帶來智慧，但你能從失敗中獲得多少智慧就要看你從失敗中學習的能力了。所以不要浪費學習的機會，儘可能多地從失敗中獲得智慧。如果你做不到這一點的話，以後你還是會一再地重複過去的失敗。
4. Don’t give up; maybe you are only one step away from success
不放棄：你離成功只有一步之遙
Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.——Thomas A. Edison
許多人失敗是因為他們在離成功只有一步之遙的時候放棄了。——愛迪生
The thought of giving up is tempting, especially when we have failed over and over again. But who knows that maybe you are only one step away from success? Will you waste the long journey you have passed when you are already so close to your destination? So hold on tight and don’t give up.
放棄的念頭總是在腦中縈繞，尤其是當你一再地遭遇失敗的時候。但是，誰又知道你是不是離成功只差一步了呢？你會不會在走過了漫長的旅途後，在離終點很近的時候放棄呢？所以，堅持住，不要放棄。
5. Maintain your enthusiasm
保持熱情
Not only you should keep on trying, you should also do it with the same level of enthusiasm as when you first began. Otherwise your subsequent effort will have less and less power.
你不僅要不斷嘗試，還要保持住最開始的那種熱情的狀態。不然的話，你會越來越失去繼續努力的力量。
So how do you maintain enthusiasm? One good way is by realizing that you are now one step closer to success. There’s no reason not to be enthusiastic when you are getting closer to success. Another way is to keep your mind on the destination, which brings us to the next point.
那麼如何才能保持熱情呢？一個好方法就是意識到你其實力成功只有一步之遙了。眼看著就要成功了，你哪有不堅持到底的理由呢。還有一個方法就是始終牢記你的目標，它將會指引你一直走下去。
6. Keep dreaming big dreams
夢想要足夠大
Always have your destination in mind; keep dreaming your big dreams. Spend time to visualize them and let the dreams energize you. Let them make you passionate and enthusiastic. Once you cease dreaming, soon you will also lose your energy and be back to mediocrity.
始終銘記你的夢想，做你的夢，不要停。花點時間去構想你的美夢，這會帶給你動力，激情和衝勁。一旦你停止夢想，你就會失去繼續前行的力量，又變回一個平庸的人。
7. Keep your confidence in yourself
充滿自信
Don’t be afraid of the space between your dreams and reality. If you can dream it, you can make it so.——Belva Davis
別對你的夢想和現實之間的差距感到畏懼，如果你有夢想，你就能實習它。——貝爾瓦·戴維斯（著名記者）
Keep your confidence in yourself despite the failure. Of course, you need to put a lot of effort and learn as much as possible from the failure, but you have the ability to make your dream come true. Many people who achieve great undertakings have no special trait. They are just ordinary people with extraordinary attitude. Let’s be one of them.
就算失敗，也要對自己充滿信心。當然，你需要花很多心血從失敗中學習經驗和智慧，但你絕對擁有實現夢想的能力。很多擁有偉大事業的人都沒有什麼特別之處，他們只是擁有不凡信念的普通人。讓我們也成為他們的一員吧。
