Mark Cuban Quotes

The more failure you can accept, the greater your chance of success.

I feel that the most important requirement in success is learning to overcome failure. You must learn to tolerate it, but never accept it

In business, you take a swing and you hope that you hit a home run, but sometimes you strike out. Strikeouts and failures are important. Being down, getting punched in the gut every once in a while by life and coming back up, that's accomplishment.

Successful people just don't let failure define them or keep them from doing what they want to do. For example, I'd have people come up to me after my shows, and they'd say they want to do stand-up but are scared they're going to fail.

There is a distinction between failing and being a failure. Few things are learned in life without failing at least once. Did you learn to roller skate without falling a few times? Did you learn to ride a bike without losing your balance? Chances are you didn't. You may have wanted to do those things so intensely that you quickly put unsuccessful attempts behind you and kept trying. Soon you acquired the skill to do the thing you wanted. Even though in the process of learning you may have failed many times, you were not a failure. "Failing" simply became an open door to try again.

Nothing in life is worthwhile unless you take risks. Fall forward. Every failed experiment is one step closer to success.

I'm convinced that about half of what separates successful entrepreneurs from the non-successful ones is pure perseverance.

Success is always an easier motivator, because you want more of it. But I've also been motivated by failure. Had I medaled in London, I don't think I would be one of the few that have gone to a Summer and Winter. I would have been content with that medal. Instead, I used that failure to go to the Winter Olympics. I always tell people that failure can be one of your biggest motivators if you just have an attitude adjustment about it.

Failure means you've now learned another valuable lesson that pushes you one step closer to success.

It is failure that is easy. Success is always hard.

No man or woman is uniformly successful... we must all expect a rather high percentage of failure in the things we attempt.

Success comes and goes. Your flops stay with you for life.

Succes is really nothing more than the record of failure. To be successful means you must be willing to fail more than anyone else.

Failure is part of the process of success.
