Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

"El éxito es aprender a ir de fracaso en fracaso sin desesperarse."
"Success is about learning from failure to failure without despertaron."
Words from Winston Churchill

I really like this quote because being successful isn’t about always being the best without any effort. Or doing something because you are good at it. Being successful is about learning from your mistakes, and your failures. Is to keep going no matter how many times you didn’t do your best or broke your personal record. Is to step by step doing your best until you reach the top. In this competitions I didn’t do so good, but mistake by mistake, failure by failure I will get better at what I do. And that is how I will be successful…
