Do you know what's cool about building a startup?

It's not just about success—it's also about failing and learning from it!

Let's talk about how failure can actually help you become even better and prepare you for success.

A quick KFC story you've never heard:

It's about Colonel Harland Sanders, the amazing guy who created finger-lickin' good fried chicken.

But before he became famous, he faced a lot of failures.

Lots of big fat L's

He had a special recipe, but nobody wanted it!

Imagine how that must have felt.

Many restaurants said "no" to him, and it seemed like everything was going wrong. But here's the awesome part—Colonel Sanders didn't let failure stop him.

Instead, he used failure as a chance to learn and grow.

Every "No" was an excuse to keep trying and improving his recipe.

He didn't see "no" as a bad thing; he saw it as a way to get better.

And you know what happened?

One day, a small restaurant owner said "yes"!

Finally!

That was the start of something incredible.

From that moment on, Colonel Sanders' chicken became super popular, and he built a huge fast-food empire called KFC!

Remember this: failure is not the end of the road.

It's actually a step on your way to success.

When things go wrong, don't get discouraged. Instead, see failure as a chance to get smarter and stronger.

Keep trying new things and learning from your mistakes.

It's all part of a growth mindset—a way of thinking that helps you become better every day.
