In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In
26 way, failure may be a way towards success. The “Spider-story” is often
27 Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13
th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider
28 a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough
29 in the rock. He tried six times. On the
30 time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to
31 the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made
32 models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked
33 he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, “Failure? I have
34 failures. Now I know 50,000 ways it won't

37 next times.
Second, is the goal（目标 ） you're trying to reach the right one? Try to do some
38 about what your real goals may be. Think about this question. “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?" This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing any way.
The third thing to keep in
39 about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself" even though you may have
