“I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost more than 300 games. Twenty six times I’ve been given the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again.... and that’s why I succeed” - Michael Jordan.

I was going to post that most great men have failed time and time again. And when they do, they get back up and keep going until they succeed. The Jordan quote is a perfect example of that.
