    > A Poem on Failure <
    

_Never be afraid to fail._

_It will arrive in the mail_

_That day you finally set sail._

_Masts at full, and a delicate wind on her tail,_

_Away you were swept, without looking back, about to write your own tale._

_A beautiful journey that comes to thee only once ye starts to fail._

### WHY?

To be good at something, practice is vital – this is true for every single endeavour in life.  Whether it is learning to drive a car, how to walk, cook a meal, become an actor/tress, skills of a manager or mastering rocket science, it takes time to be good at any **one** thing. A jack of all trades masters no ‘thing’.

Success comes to those who have failed many times.
