Failure is the stepping stone to succes ........??

Hi, Only those person who are strong enough to take all the responsibilities of what has happened to him is capable of learning from his failures. Otherwise, failures remain just an incident and slowly fades away from our life. A person who is not flexible enough to take all the blames will likely be repeating the same mistake again and again. Once we learn from our mistakes they don't remain our mistakes anymore, they are just transformed into realizations. To teach anyone anything you have to first identify and understand his inclinations. You may feel that you are completely aware of what your brother likes and what he dislikes, but still it may need some more study and observation. Once you identify it, the next step will be to teach him through something that he already likes very much. For example, if he likes to play chess, you may say, "You can play chess in computers too, and unlike human players it can be more difficult to defeat computers in chess. Would you like to give it a try?" Or, if he likes to listen to music then start your teachings with an introduction to mixer and other audio tools. If he likes to read books, reveal to him all the free resources that he may avail through internet. What he already likes should be the basis of what he is going to learn in future. Thanks God bless you

I think this proverb came about because failure leads to self resentment , which leads to trying harder to succeed next time. This has applied to me. I remember a time when I used to never study and never try to achieve in school. I would come home everyday and rot my brain by watching T.V the whole time and playing video games. My Dad one day introduced me to an academic student. He inspired me to study harder , so that I can be successful too like him. I did fail initially in some tests but I stuck at it and now I'm almost always getting the higher marks in the class. Just keep working with your younger brother. Explain things to him in a real simple way. Maybe you should dry diagrams. Eventually he'll get it.

I would like to say your 12 years younger brother maybe don't like to something on computers, but you can teach it slowly. As me, it's very difficult for me to use this proverb, when I failed, it's good way to encourage myslef to use this proverb"failing is stepping stone to success," when I failed, I normally check what and why I did wrong or failed, and let me realized what I should avoid from the previous mistake, it will let me avoid to go the same way from the previous expreience.

Just don't get frustrated with your brother. Different people have different paces of learning. When I was learning about computer I was so worried about breaking something, so just reassure him tell him he cannot do any damage if he makes a mistake. Try to think like a 12 year old. Speak to him in simple terms so he understands. Your brother his lucky most of my computer knowledge has come from self teaxhing and trial and error.

maybe that proverb is right cause every successful person in the world experience failure at first. at the case of your brother maybe the computer is not his thing maybe music, sports or other stuff.. try asking him what he likes, so you can guide him in the right path.. :)

i have a friend who we thought got pregnant to a fifteen year old boy. knowing the situation will soon come to her mother he ask for the boys mother but in a wrongly manner the mother of the boy won't let his son accept the responsibility of being a young father. my friend got really hurt from what she heard. she never see it coming. a week after i received a text from her saying that she already had her monthly period. she was so happy. i told her to keep away from relationship and possible commitments at the moment to avoid the same drama. day after i heard something from a common friend telling me that she already have another boyfriend. frustrated i came up to her and said that she will never understand the feeling of being in a real relationship if she continous to do things and not considering the consequences.

its not only sucess but also hell.....once you fail and not able to get back to it, you go to hell!!!

maybe you should explain it when he got relax. repeating the same example is good too to make him remember the lesson.You should plant in his mind too that playing computer is fun. the minded which had made in to that frame usually get easier to make someone understand about a lesson.

true friend faliure is the stepping stone to success!when the life teaches the tastes of both then one becomes more and more perfect!

It only means your brother has no interests with the thing you are teaching him and it will really be useless then. I believe with that saying since people get smarter and learn, when he experienced it.

Is he interested to learn? If not, it would be too hard for him to understand everything about computers. He should be dedicated to learn so it would be easy for him, if no matter how you tried to teach but to no avail of learning, there is something wrong or he is just a slow learner. Just be patient to him everyday, who knows, he will be one of the best computer expert in your country...

I've been a 12 year old once. I remember when I was in the sixth grade. My parent always talking to me to do my best and be successful in life. At first Im not really interest maybe because am in the care of my parent. Now I am 30 years old and still I can remember the things my parent taught me about success. Anyway, It was not a failure when we are trying to teach young ones about proverbs, good deeds or success. Even though they cant understand, the words you told them will stuck in their minds. As they grower older, the things they did not understand will soon to be understood because they always remember in what the thing you told them when their still young. And that I would say, it was a still success.

“Failure is the stepping stone to sucess” the proverb is suitable to the special person and special circumstances.Sometimes you want to give him a kind of experience but he can't accept your kindhearted .On the contrary he will fail.What's matter?we don't have lead the right way!Just as yr young brother yu should find his intestings and lead him on his interestings.I think yu will get the surprise!Because yr brother is just 12 so he don't have too many minds .If you can give love and happiness ,in my opion he will listen to you and he will work hard!
