Fail Contest

   Fail Contest   (Feb. Post)

When people think of failure, many think of bad things. Not 

winning, last place, losing. The truth is under all of that is good. Students or anyone should not be afraid to fail. We all have heard the saying, “You learn from your mistakes.” By that, you can see what you have done wrong in the past and fix it in the future. Every person in this world has failed at least once. In the Scholastic Scope Magazine it tells you many people who have failed more than once who were successful. We all know the famous Katy Perry. She had three record labels that failed before succeeding. The most common failure was Abraham Lincoln. He lost five elections before becoming president. Did he ever look down after that? No, of course not! He did not give up. Now Lincoln is one of the most important people ever. Most students get upset because of failure. Like not making the basketball team, or not getting in the school they wanted, and much more. However, the key thing is to never give up. Try, try, and try again. Just pick yourself up and start over. One other famous fails was by J.K Rowling. She had twelve publishers who rejected the first Harry Potter book. Look where she is now! You, see? Why give up, when success is right in front of you?
