Page 1-87 keyword beliefs keyword self-confidence don't allow inaccurate beliefs about your abilities to hold you back from becoming successful. Spend some time thinking about your beliefs surrounding failure. Look at your path to success as a marathon and not a sprint. Except that failure is part of the process that helps you learn and grow.

— from Goals, Action & Defining Success (Goal/Action/Success/Motivation)

In the book

What carries you past that point is tenacity — a braid of motivation, perseverance, resilience, and sheer will — and the plain refusal to treat failure as the end, because failure is simply part of the process of success, and the people who avoid all failure avoid success along with it. Run the long race as a marathon, not a sprint, and expect the falls. But tenacity needs honest fuel, so stop and ask yourself, with real honesty, what is actually driving you — is this goal yours, or is it a need to prove something, or to please someone, or to keep score against a neighbor? — Goals, Action & Defining Success (Goal/Action/Success/Motivation)
