My Definition of Failure

S－U－C－C－E－S－S.SUCCESS.Success is the catch-word of the times.It

goes without saying that almost all of us want to be successful.Like it or not, however, we must admit that it s not easy to achieve

success.More often than not, we have to deal with its opposite，namely failure.But first of all, what is failure? It is hard to define, because

dif-ferent people have different answers.However, as far as I'm

con-cerned, I think real failure is not to try hard.It's commendable that you set your mind on the best and

con-stantly strive for it.At many times, however, it's unlikely

that you'll do the best, because of the scarcity of No.1 and

because of the fact that the attainment of the very best involves

many things, some of which are beyond your expectation.In addition

to your own merit, that of your competitors also plays an important

part.So it is a more sensible, but no less commendable thing for

you to compete with yourself, not with others.You don t have to do

best.But you should always try to do your best in whatever you are

determined to do.If you have given it 100 percent, you are not a

failure, even though you are outplayed by others.Because you have

given it 100 percent, there s nothing to regret, nor is there any

need to blame yourself.Instead, you should give credit to yourself

for trying.I don t like finding excuses for our failures, because we haven t

failed at all.Take myself for example.Last year, I enrolled for

the Sports Meet in my university and competed in the 3,000－meter

race.I did this not because I m gifted in or good at running, but

because I wanted to fulfill a childhood dream.I had been an

in-competent student of physical education or p.E., ever since I was

a primary school student.As a weak student of p.E., I never got a

chance to participate in a sports meet.I envied my classmates who

were good at sports.I used to dream of becoming one of them and

displaying my skills in a sports meet.After I entered university, I

spent much of my spare time on physical exercises, such as running，the long jump.Although I can run much faster than before, I m not

capable of winning a prize or a good place in a campus－wide run-ning

competition.In spite of that, I still entered for the event，be-cause I wanted to challenge myself and fulfill my athletic dream.I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not going in

for this race.But I chose to accept the challenge and face the

difficul-ties.I trained hard for the race, so when I came out last

but one in the competition, I didn t call my attempt a failure，because I had tried and struggled.Real failure is not to try hard.“I will forgive myself if I fail;

I won t forgive myself if I don't try”, because “It's better to have

fought and lost than not to fight at all”.Baron pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic

movement once said：“the most important thing in Olympic Games is not

to win, but to take part, just like the most important thing in life

is not the triumph, but the struggle.The essential thing is not to

have conquered, but to have fought well.”

But what if we did fail in something? Simple.First, don t panic，because failure is not the end of the world.As the English saying

goes, he who falls today may rise tomorrow.Second, try, try again，because nothing is really over until the moment we stop try-ing.So

long as we persist and never give up, we will succeed eventually.No failure is sweet.However, just as bitter medicine cures

sickness, failure may prove to be very instructive, so long as we

can put it in perspective.There is a saying that failure is the

mother of success.It's natural for us to get depressed for a

certain period of time, but we shouldn't inflate the importance of

our temporary setback and be disheartened by setbacks, even never

recover.We should be undaunted by failures and motivated to strive

even harder to succeed.Real failure is not to try hard.It is my firm belief that one's

earnest efforts will not be wasted.They will pay off either in

other ways or at other times.In this sense, today's failure

prepares tomorrow's triumph.At last, let's bear Goldsmith's remarks in mind：“Our greatest

glory consists not in never falling, but rising every time we fall。”

Thank you all!

Because, I think, it is a typical success story.It is highly philosophical and symbolic.By implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1)a goal to be set.as represented by the beautiful princess;2)challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks;3)the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through;and 4)the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.The story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result.The reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa.If a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence.The term ”success", to be sure.will not sit still for easy definition.But as I understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor.To clarify my view, let me give another analogy.If we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away David Seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another David, namely David Beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings.If we further changed the rules by not allowing Arsenal's defenders to defend, so that Beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared.In accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value.The sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.The concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative.Something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person.In acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success.That's why we greatly admire Stephen Hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.I myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffer from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this.I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level contest.But I chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties.Now here I am.If I come out first, it will be a great success for me.If I come out last-I hope this will not be the case-but if I come out last, I will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties.For me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because I have truly gained by participating.Let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success.You my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties.The ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.

第五篇：正确看待失败演讲稿

正确看待失败演讲稿1

尊敬的各位老师，亲爱的同学们：

大家好！

很高兴我今天能够站在这里演讲，我是来自x班的xx，今天我演讲的题目是《正确看待失败》。

每个人的人生都不可能是一帆风顺的，总会遇到各种各样的困难，想要完成一件事情也不可能会一次就成功，总是会失败很多次的。失败其实并不可怕，失败并不就代表着我们就不能完成这件事了，但我们对待失败的态度却会影响到结果。所以我们要学会用正确的态度来看待失败，失败是会让我们成长的，可能同学们自己都没有发现，但你们仔细的回想一下，在失败了一次之后自己是不是成长了，知道该怎样去解决这样的一个问题了。

我们在写作业的时候，在考试的时候，也会有做错的题目，这也能够算做是失败。但是在做错之后，我们是不是就知道了这道题目应该怎样做了，下一次再遇到的话也一定能够做出来了。其实做其它的事情也是一样的，既然失败了，肯定是有哪里做的不够好的，才会导致失败，这时我们要做的就是找出自己失败的原因，让自己之后不要犯同样的`错误，就能够成功了。所以在失败之后我们不应该放弃，而是应该继续的去努力，总会成功的。

在很多次的考试中，肯定也会有没考好的时候，有很多的同学就继续的努力，也有很多的同学就此放弃，两种选择对应的是两种不同的结果。我想同学们应该知道自己之后要怎么做了，如果真正的想做好一件事情的话最重要的就是要调整好自己的心态，因为失败是在所难免的，这是一定会经历的，所以我们应该要在失败的时候用正确的态度去面对它，保持着一个乐观积极的态度，这样我们才能够从失败中吸取教训，让自己一步一步的走向成功。

所以最重要的事情并不是避免失败，或者逃避失败，而是要在失败了之后正确的看待自己这一次的失败。失败没有关系，失败对我们来说也是会有一定的帮助的，所以我们应该要吸取失败的经验，让自己之后做得更好，这样的态度才能够帮助我们。同学们，在失败了之后我们不能放弃，也不能自怨自艾，这不是我们应该要做的。我相信如果同学们在失败之后都能够采取正确的态度，是一定能够取得胜利的。希望每一位同学都能在每一场“战斗”中取得最终的胜利。

谢谢大家！

正确看待失败演讲稿2

亲爱的老师，同学们：

大家好！

冰心说过：“成功的花，人们只惊慕它现时的明艳，谁知它当初的芽儿，却浸透了奋斗的泪泉，洒遍了牺牲的血雨！”这花在经受了风雨之后，终于艳丽可人，而谁又知当初的芽儿，是在多少次失败的历练中才成功的呢？在我的眼里这失败并非一种痛苦，他是一首歌，一首以坚持为号角，以奋斗为旗帜谱写成的战歌！

爱迪生在发明电灯以前，只是一个不知名的人，他决心用自己的智慧，为人类驱除黑暗，为了这项发明他几乎试遍了所有可能发光的材料。夜以继日，废寝忘食，经历了无数失败。有一次，他用烧黑的竹丝当做材料，在严密的操作中，终于使他可以持续点亮19个小时这短短的19个小时，却也经历了多少失败，可是这仍然不符合他的要求，他依然重新开始，总结失败中的经验，洒遍奋斗的汗水，终于造出了使世界向工业化迈进一大步的电灯。爱迪生的成功告诉我们，成功的大屋，是有失败的砖瓦堆砌而成的，成功的高潮，是以失败作为序曲的，失败后只要我们冷静，沉着的看问题，像爱迪生那样把失败当做成功的垫脚石，把失败当做一首以牺牲和奋斗为号子写成的`战歌。

面对失败，不要抱怨，把每一次失败都当做一次反思，把每一次失败都当做一次改变，改变方向，改变方法，改变态度。那么，成功也就离我们不远了。有人说过：“如先改变自己，对方也会改变；对方有了改变，心境也会改变；心境有了改变，言辞也会改变；言辞一有改变，态度也会改变；态度一有改变，习惯就会改变；习惯一有改变，运气就会改变；运气一有改变，人生随之改变！”所以，面对困难和失败，我们要做的必将是先改变自己的心态！失败后不要气馁，保持一颗平静的心至关重要，我们要相信自己，只要努力定会成功；其次，我们要总结失败中的经验，找出症结所在并加以改正；最后我们要做的就是把每一次失败都当做一种历练。那么历尽失败，饱经沧桑而百折不挠的我们就会获得成功，我想：一个人如果做到这些，成功就近在咫尺；一个家庭如果做到这些，幸福就会荡漾心田；一个国家如果做到这些，世界也将为之颤动。

朋友们，夏衍说过：“种子不落在肥土而落在瓦砾中，有生命力的种子绝不会悲观和叹气，因为有了阻力才有磨炼。”面对失败，让我们一起用汗水与奋斗谱写一首歌，一首催人奋进的战歌。

我的演讲完毕，谢谢大家！
