English to Spanish: Failing Forward
Source text - English Soccer player Kyle Rote Jr. remarked, "There is no doubt in my mind that
there are many ways to be a winner, but there is really only one way to
be a loser and that is to fail and not look beyond failure". How people
see failure and deal with it- whether they posses the ability to look
beyond it and keep achieving- impacts every aspect of their lives.
In Leadership Magazine, J. Wallace Hamilton states, "The increase of
suicides, alcoholics,and even some forms of nervous breakdowns is
evidence that many people are training for success when they should be
training for failure.
Failure is far more common than success, poverty is more prevalent than
wealth; and disappointment more normal than arrival."
Training for failure! That is a great concept, and it's the idea that
prompted me to write this book. I want to help you train for failure. I
want you to learn how to confidently look the prospect of failure in the
eye and move forward anyway. Because in life, the question is not if
you will have problems but how you are going to deal with your problems.
Are you going to fail forward or backward?
Putting a new face to obstacles.
When I think of people who were able to look trouble in the ey and forge forward, one of the first who comes to mind is Mary Kay Ash. She overcame a lot of obstacles in her carrier and she never let failure the better of her. Mary Kay first carrier was in direct sales, and she was quite succesful. But she also found that it was difficult for a woman to progress in the corporate world, especially in the 1950s and early 1960s- even after twenty years of success. She says,
I had worked my way up to being a member of the board of the company I was with only to find out, even though our sales force was made up entirely of women, governed by an all male board, my opinions were of no value. I constantly heard, "Mary Kay, you are thinking like a woman again!!" I felt rejection of the worst form. So I decided to retire.
Translation - Spanish El jugador de futbol soccer Kyle Rote Jr. recalcó: "No tengo ninguna
duda en mi mente de que hay varias maneras de ser un ganador, pero
existe solo una de ser un perdedor y es cuando se falla y no se ve mas
allá del fracaso". Como las personas enfrentan el fracaso
y lo manejan - ya sea si poseen la habilidad para mirar mas allá de
aquello y continúan obteniendo-impactos en cada aspecto de sus vidas.
En la Revista Liderazgo, J Wallace Hamilton declara, "El incremento de
suicidios, alcohólicos algunos casos de crisis de nervios es una
evidencia de que mucha gente esta entrenada para tener éxito, cuando
deberían de ser entrenados para fracasar.
El fracaso es más común que el suceso, la pobreza prevalece más que la
riqueza, y la desilusión es más normal que la realización.
!Entrenamiento para el fracaso! Ese es un gran concepto, y es esta idea que me incitó
para escribir este libro. Yo quiero ayudar a entrenarte para el fracaso. Yo quiero que aprendas como enfrentar con anticipación confiadamente el fracaso y seguir adelante de cualquier forma. Porque en la vida, la cuestión no es si vas a tener problemas, sino cómo vas a manejarlos.
¿Vas a ir de la falla hacia adelante o hacia atrás?
Poniendo una nueva cara a los obstáculos .
Cuando pienso en las personas que fueron capaces de enfrentar al fracaso y seguir adelante, uno de los primeros que me vienen a la mente es Mary Kay Ash. Ella se sobrepuso a los obstáculos de su carrera, y nunca tomó a pecho el fracaso. La primera carrea de Mary Kay fue ventas directas y fue muy exitosa. Pero descubrió que era difícil para una mujer progresar en el mundo corporativo, especialmente en los años de1950 y comienzos de 1960- aún después de veinticinco años de éxito. Ella dice,
Yo había luchado para convertirme en miembro del Comité de la Compañía que estuve para descubrir, que aunque nuestra fuerza de ventas era formado enteramente por mujeres, era gobernado completamente por un Comité masculino, mis opiniones no tenían ningún valor y constantemente escuchaba “ ¡Mary Kay, estas pensando como mujer de nuevo!” Sentí rechazo de lo peor. Así que decidí jubilarme.
