    A love Affair with Failure

    By Dr. Akintoye Akindele & Olakunle Soriyan

    In A Love Affair with Failure, the authors aim to help emerging entrepreneurs be prepared for the inevitable challenges ahead and urge them to be resilient in pursuing their dreams, embracing the idea of failing not only as a prerequisite for achieving success, but also a victory in itself because it signifies having had the courage to take action.

    Remind yourself that you’re a winner every day and work on your mindset. You are not just a survivor; you are a warrior. Don’t have a victim mentality. You are what you project yourself to be. Setbacks are imperative to your journey; winning is an attitude. Having a hunger to win is extremely important.
