Failure Is the Mother of Success
The proverb “Sometimes you have to fall before you can fly” conveys such a moral that failure comes first, followed by success, namely, failure is the mother of success. This rule holds true for many cases in our life. When someone does something, he often fails before he can overcome obstacles and then move forward. Just think of the story of the great inventor Thomas Edison. He failed 10,000 times before he invented the electric light. The voluminous personal papers of Edison revealed that his inventions typically did not spring to life in a flash of inspiration but evolved slowly from previous works. It is believed that sometimes a series of apparent failures are really followed by successes.
In the long journey of life,we will inevitably encounter all kinds of difficulties and obstacles. We should have a doom unbeatable faith and determined will and be not afraid of falling in order to climb to the peak. Please remember if we want to fly freely in the sky of success, we have to fall first.

One glance at a pyramid can leave the viewer in awe of its beauty and splend or. Upon closer examination, however, one might be surprised to discover that such a grandiose structure is composed entirely of ordinary stones.
Most people are familiar with the proverb: Rome was not built in a day. An object as grand as a pyramid is likewise not so quickly or easily constructed. Just as the greatness of the city of Rome is due to the combination of its smaller parts, a pyramid is only as strong as the stones it is comprised of. The image of a pyramid reminds us that great success is in fact an accumulation of small a chievements.
History proves that many famous artists and scientists are only successful because of their continued efforts, even after numerous failures. One might recall Leonardo DaVinci's drawing of an egg, Wang Xi Zhi practicing handwriting, or Thomas Edison inventing the light bulb, for example. The fable that tells us that even water can eventually pierce through stone also points to the importance of patience and diligence. We should take such stories and histories into account and remember the importance of fundamentals; remember that one can build a pyramid only if one is willing to work with small stones. People would be wise to abandon rash inclinations and instead try in earnest. Perseverance is sure to leadto success.
