Ned Vizzini Quotes

Making a mistake is also an achievement.

What people call success is only preparation for the next failure.

No man ever progressed to greatness and goodness but through great mistakes.

I hope you'll make mistakes. If you're making mistakes, it means you're out there doing something.

We all make mistakes, but the people who thrive from their mistakes are the successful ones.

Mistakes are the stepping stones to success.

If you are not successful, that means you're not making enough mistakes.

She thinks, I failed twice. If I failed twice I'm going to fail forever. No! That is not the law of life. If you failed twice that means you can learn. It's just a learning experience.

You can learn a line from a win and a book from a defeat.

If you keep winning, you don't know the areas you've to work hard.

The biggest lesson I had in my life was failure.

When we make progress and get better at something, it is inherently motivating. In order for people to make progress, they have to get feedback and information on how they're doing.

If you play well, you are praised; if you play badly, you are criticised. Everyone should try to manage it the way they want to.

For me, failure is not a bad thing because it teaches you how to succeed.

You only notice long snappers when they screw up.

Failure is a great learning tool.

Life gives you lots of chances to screw up which means you have just as many chances to get it right.
