Kegagalan adalah kesuksesan yang tertunda, kalimat tersebut sering muncul untuk membangkitkan semangat seseorang dalam berusaha dan diharapkan dapat bangkit dari kegagalan dan meraih kesuksesan. Ibarat dua sisi mata koin, kesuksesan dan kegagalan selalu berjalan beriringan. Salah satunya akan membayangi yang lainnya, apakah itu kegagalan atau kesuksesan. Artinya ketika Anda melihat peluang kesuksesan, maka dibalik peluang itu ada kegagalan. Begitu juga sebaliknya. Dan arti pepatah, “kegagalan adalah kesuksesan yang tertunda” merupakan mindset yang harus ditanamkan bahwa jangan takut dengan kegagalan. Karena dibalik kegagalan ada kesuksesan yang menanti. Seperti yang kita ketahui bahwa ketika menjalankan suatu hal baik itu bisnis maupun hal lain tidak seharusnya bersikap untuk mudah putus asa dan menyerah. Dimana seharusnya kita harus bersikap pantang menyerah, terus memperbaiki dan memperbaiki kembali agar kalimat yang menyatakan kegagalan adalah kesuksesan yang tertunda tersebut dapat terjadi dan terbukti kebenarannya.
