Success vs failure

.I heard this quote the other day but now don't know who the author is. Yet it structor me as profound. "Failure is never fatal and success is never final." All of my life I fav been afraid of failure, believing that if I failed my life would end. Yet I was also so afraid the once I achieved success I would loose it. Either way I was always striving to secure success without having to fail. Maybe I still am.
In writing it is so important to continue to write even if you deem your work a failure. I tend to be pessimistic but I am trying to be optimistic about my gift of writing and I encourage you as well. Don't get so focused on success that you're to afraid of failure. In failure there is always lesson to learn that will help you succeed success.
