Don't read success stories, you will only get a message. Read failure stories, you will get some ideas to get success. - Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam
Meaning: It is exciting to read success stories – it fills us with hope, energy and the belief that anything and everything is possible in this world.
And truly enough most of these success stories are tweaked to give you the picture perfect ending we all love to see cos let us face it – tragedies don't succeed that very well in cinema.
But that doesn't mean that we recommend you to read failure stories. NO! We really don't want you to do that. But we do want you to understand the importance of failures and maybe even appreciate them.
I think what Kalam is trying to say here is that there has never been a respectable success without a considerable failure. There have been mistakes in the world which have opened up new lines of opportunities and the way we have used them have led us to where we are today.
The best way out is to honor the importance of failures as well, appreciate them and stay clear of them. You don't have to do all the mistakes to learn from them – you can read a few too.
