About this Quote

This quote by David Viscott speaks with the importance of taking risks and putting in effort in order to accomplish success. It suggests that those who do not take the effort to attempt something brand-new or gamble on something are the ones who will ultimately fail. This is because without taking the required steps to reach an objective, it is impossible to accomplish it. The quote likewise suggests that even if one does not prosper in the end, the effort put in is still worth it. It is better to have attempted and stopped working than to have never ever tried at all. This quote motivates individuals to take risks and to not hesitate of failure, as it is an essential part of the learning procedure. It is very important to remember that failure is not completion, however rather a stepping stone to success.
