β¦ Synopsis
'Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough.' Oftentimes, our desire to succeed doesn't account for the failure, when in fact, failing at something can teach us the most about how to succeed. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam was a perennial optimist and had unflinching faith in the ability and intent of the Indian youth to overcome every single problem the nation faces. In 'Failure Is a Teacher', read some of Kalam's most profound ideas about failing and using that failure to propel ourselves towards success.
