how many times have you failed at something and what keeps you going?

did you ever find the success you were after?

I stopped counting how many times I've failed anymore. But it is okay because it is not about how many times I fail. It is about the ONE time I have a success. And when I succeed - as we say in my country: I milk the cow as long as it gives me milk ;)
 
Counting failures can just make feel like shit bro, count the victories only. Decide to move on and learn from that experience.

Hah! Yeah, honestly this sums it up.

You notice a big mindset difference between people willing to try new projects and fail and those willing to only take the safe bets.

You notice a big income difference too.
 
I fail every day but still here and ready to fail again and learn from my mistakes.
 
I can't see my successes from my fails. Success/fail ratio 1/1000
 
Many! But I never stopped chasing. If you stop, then what’s the purpose of life?
 
Failure is inevitable for high rewards. I personally had things that paid off, but most often led to finding the truth.

Lost the count a long time ago... Now I don't bother. I may as well be a "guru" in failing but what keeps me going is the fact that my pride; My pride won't allow me to be dependent on another human for my survival or to fulfill my desires. Only children have that luxury, adults don't.

Quoting Stallone, the quote i guide on :"You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!". I don't think even matters how many times you failed, it matters how many times you succeeded.
 
Going against the grain here, I think it’s good to quit.

Obviously you should be objectively looking at the situation to see if it’s worth the effort to continue or not.

If you expend tons effort to accomplish something of very little value, did you REALLY win?

That being said, I’ve been homeless twice.

I also had 2 employees embezzle $100k from my current business and I persisted against that adversity—only to now be pocketing $18k/mo profit.

I also have a second business (PPC agency) in the works.

If you KNOW it’s worth it, and you KNOW you can do it, then why not continue?

But blind persistence is stupidity.

been homeless twice as well, chasing dreams and falling flat on my face for many many years
now after so many failures im making about 10k monthly working part time for 3 yrs now
im glad to be back on this forum after such a long break, i credit my success to the stuff ive learned on this forum

from the day i joined this forum it took 7 years to get to 10k monthly and im not done yet
looking forward to more failures, and more successes
ill never give up, my goal is 15-20k a month on autopilot - well close to autopilot lol
 
You never fail... You learn.
Every single day is a new lesson mate.
 
I like when I fail. Without it I would never learn. Something I have noticed is success doesn't come with a manual.

If you succeed without any failure then I feel there is no goal or ambition to succeed. I love the journey and I love the failure.

To answer your question, the short of it, way to many to count but then again I was never counting from the beginning. It's a mindset.
 
I can't even count.. Many, many times. It's a part of the game.
