I Always Succeed NOT Because I Do NOT Fail.




I succeed in everything that I do, not because that I do not fail. In fact, I fail so much and so many times that I continue to succeed. What’s my secret? I just don’t know how to give up on my dreams and the fire keeps burning with purpose.


Everyone of us can do great things in our lifetime. The questions are:


  1. What are the sacrifices that we are willing to commit to?
  2. What is the price that we are willing to pay?  



I wish everyone of you the very best and hope that you find your path to what you truly are able to contribute to society in a good way. Always remember to do good and influence others to do good.




What goes around comes around. If you do good, good will come back and if you do bad, bad will come back. Do not cheat. Do not lie. Do not steal. Do not complain. Do not blame. Do not give excuses. If you are able to live by these simple philosophy, you will have a better flow for your life ahead.

Ingredient to Success

1) Passion
2) Did not know the word "Give Up"
3) Thirsty with new knowledge/information/experience and to try new things
4) Be a flexible
5) Not afraid and dare to take the risk

Failure Is Life's Great Teacher.
We should celebrate it whenever we FAIL.
We should Enjoy it when the Success comes.

The first few months are usually the hardest. I remember when I first started in sales, I have no experiences and it was hard for me. My persistence and with the right guidance, I managed to close my first executed sales and I never looked back :)

Failure is only a failure when you stop trying.��

Agreed with Mr. Ernie

Do the right things, trust the process.
Do not give up, we will achieve what we want.

Believe in yourself!

Stop thinking the same old problems that make us failed over and over again. The past is over. Nothing lasts. Its time to wake up and build the new future. Failure is the sweetness thing in life. Without failure there will be no success.

“There is no progress or accomplishment without sacrifice.” If you want something you’ve never had, you must be willing to do something you’ve never done. This keeps me motivated and wanting to go extra miles in order to achieve my dreams.

The dreams that we want to achieve definitely will have so many obstacles and wont come easily. The obstacles will make us understand and learnt that everything happen for so many reasons. Accept it positively and move forward. Thank you.

Failure does not mean that it fails forever. We must rise to move forward in the future. Believe in yourself that nothing is impossible in this world.

Enjoy in everything we do. Thank you Mr. Ernie for always giving the best and passion for your team.

I have always stood by my believe that if we do good to people around us, God will always do good to us. Faith alone would not get us places, like you say Mr. Ernie, we should always keep the fire burning with purpose. Wonderful write up indeed.

Failure isn't falling down, it's refusing to get back up. So, never give up, never surrender, and rise up against the odds. Thank you Mr.Ernie for the motivation.

“You won’t get tired and give up easily when you are doing what you love!”
I totally agree 100% on the stated statement as currently I am experiencing that particular moment in my life.

Every employee will be definitely waiting for this particular word; “JOB PROMOTION”. Yes, there will be additional tasks that need to be completed within a time frame, but I don’t take it as a burden for me. I tried my best with my team to support the organisation’s growth without complaining and blaming. As the result, it supports my career growth in a smooth way.

I was still struggling to find my path during the first few months when I joined here. But now I can confidently say, “I know what I am doing”, “I know where I am heading to” & “I know what I can contribute to the society”.

Thank you Mr. Ernie for the guidance, love and care.

As the Chinese proverb says, "Failure is the mother of success".
The word 'Mother' has been highlighted as one of the most significant words in the world. Hence, if 'failure' is not important throughout our lives and growth, why would it be referred as the 'Mother' of success?
Nobody learns without getting things wrong; be bold to make mistakes, learn from the mistakes, and success is no longer far from us.

Nicoline Natasha said...

Set goals, say prayers and work hard. That should be our daily motivation in order for us to succeed and to achieve our goals. A dream doesn’t become reality through magic. It takes sweat, determination, and hard work. We just need to identify our interest and capabilities, channel that towards our targeted goals. Provided abiding by the Number One Rule, do it with integrity only then we can truly feel the greater satisfaction once we have accomplished success.

We learn a lot from failure. We succeed because of past failure. BUT, do not fail for a second time.

Chloe Ang said...

Success will not come if we do not learn from failure. Just don't give up.
Always do good things and influence others to do good things also! Thank you for sharing, Mr. Ernie!

Noorfa said...

Success is not easy as we said but it is always rewarding. Sometimes when people did not see the results that they want, they just surrender and give up. Result may take time but it is always satisfying. It is easy to give up but extremely difficult to hold on and continue fighting.

I will always fight and continue to growth despite failing for a better ME!

Yes! We should not give up easily, when we FAIL.

Always keep the fire on our dreams! We should enjoy the process and moving forward!

Thank you Mr. Ernie for the great spirit! I like your this statement 'What goes around comes around. If you do good, good will come back and if you do bad, bad will come back. Do not cheat. Do not lie. Do not steal. Do not complain. Do not blame. Do not give excuses.'

Simple word is you just need to be honest with yourself and that is the key of success.

For me very simple, be honest and focus. Keep strength no weakness!

Have a nice day ahead!

Thank you.

A sacrifice is a willingness to giving up our time and our energy. It can be as quiet as dedicating our lives to justice, truth and acts of compassion. Success is when a hard work, determination, learning, studying and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do. Thank you for having faith in my abilities.

“It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all, in which case you have failed by default.”

Unknown said...

True Indeed Mr Ernie.

We will never improve ourselves if we have never fail in our life. Rome was not built over night. Definitely the employees made mistakes along the way.It is completely fine when we work on it the first time , and things did not work the way it is supposed to be.

It is all about trial and error.The ultimate thing is we will never give up in our life.

Thank you.

Don't give up just because of what someone siad. use that as motivation to push harder.
The minute you think of giving up, think of the reason why you held on so long.

[Failure is the mother of success.]

Is okay to Fail but must learn something from it and do not repeat the same mistake again. Just don't give up!

As you always said you have already been working so hard for so long for the good of the company and even our PM Tun.Dr.Mahathir a 93-year-old man, worked so hard and sacrificed so much for the country, what is our excuse to not work hard and harder?

"It’s OK to be broken. Just don’t stay broken. Always be proud of your scars."

Our scars make us stronger to face all challenges, this is the most effective learning process.
When we are willing to sacrifice our time and effort to do more and learn more without being calculative, we will definitely gain more and succeed in the future!

Everything happen for a reason. A reason to become better or a reason to open minded Or a reason to realise something.

We have to except and acknowledge then take action.
Most important, don’t give up easily and do things consistently and continuous.

"I succeed in everything that I do, not because that I do not fail."
Sorry sir. Your statement is quite confusing. When you claimed yourself to be succeed in EVERYTHING you do, you should not failed even once. I believe you should rephrase your "everything" statement here. Just my 2 cents. winwink~

Gym Chan said...

Talking about failure, I really get used to it.
Dealing with the beyond world level boss, everything I do is a failure and also a learning process to me. Yes! NOT many of the people can have the chance to work with Beyond World level boss, it's also NOT many of the people can stay with this kind of boss for long. Because of 2 reasons. Number 1 is because of no passion in what they are doing. Number 2 is escape from UNCOMFORTABLE.

Yes. Failure does make people feel uncomfortable and people will choose to leave and escape from the failure. NOT many people can face the failure and mistake, therefore they choose to leave and find a comfortable space and continue with it. "If you feel you are comfortable right now, that's means you are NOT growing". I do see a lot they thought they were growing by escaping failure in a smart way. And my president always teaches me to sincerely wish them All The Best and hope they really grow well along the journey.

Talking about me, I almost feel something in every single day, failed in making a right decision, failed in not taking massive action, failed in not manage the work well, failed to lead the team well...

If I choose to escape from all these failures, this will be my BIGGEST FAILURE in life!
I am glad to have an organization & boss who willing to give unlimited chances for people to learn from failures. Sometimes, is not the boss NOT willing to help you, is you give up yourself too early.

Nothing comes easy & anything is possible.
No matter where am I & who am I with, I will never forget my Beyond Education mission.
Always do good things & Influence others to do good!

Thank you Mr. Ernie for your sharing and thoughts, you let us grow one step higher again!
