Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm
Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.
— Winston Churchill
As many aphorisms, what I find interesting here are the thoughts that it could trigger, and of all the possibilities I’d like to focus on the “why?”.
My answer, today, is that the ability to go through failures without losing enthusiasm starts from a passion, or some form of inner fire. If that’s missing, then every failure is going to be a huge blow able to stop you. If you have passion, than it’s going to be a huge blow able to make you stronger.

I totally agree with you. If you can keep up and go forward after a failure is because you have a great passion for the matter you failed into, or because you're so resolute not to stop that you can't just give up.
And better, if you HAVE both of them then there's nothing able to stop you :)
