Accepting Failure is Critical for Success


Chindwin Home Based Care- SLA admits that accepting failure is vital for any grassroots organization to mature. In the year ending 2011, we have realized that not everything came so easy on our path. But in order to realize that we failed to reach our priorities, we need to accept failure. As we begin our year, we'll work on our failures and take them as a learning opportunity. We are curious to hear from our readers, how they embrace failure in the work they do. If we planned to reach out to 10 women groups to help them improve their livelihoods and at the end of the year women did not change as we had anticipated, we put on our breaks and revisit why we failed so that we mitigate the same problem the following year.
