I've achieved many success' in my life, just as anyone. I've learned to ride a bike, I've been on the honor roll, I've read a book, I've got two jobs, I've made friends, just little things in life like that.
I'd say I achieved any success by just being myself and doing things I wanted or needed.
"Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.

I would define failure as giving up. The only explanation for failure is when you stop trying.
Times I failed myself is when I didn't get an A in a class or on a paper when I knew I could, letting a bad mood ruin a good day, not trying out for a team cause I was scared. I failed because I didn't have the courage or I just didn't give my all. If you want something really bad, you have to go out and get it, it can't just be handed to you.
"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."

Success can motivate you to do more like when you run a mile, you ran so well you might as well run another.
When you fail it can encourage you to just try harder. If you can't beat a level on a video game you don't stop trying, you keep playing over and over until you finally get it.
I become more motivated from any success or failure. To just try harder. With success I try to set the bar higher making it easier to be motivated by success rather than failure. I already know I accomplished one thing making me just wanting to try harder and do better than before.
For my genius hour, I've accomplished cooking well and spending time with my family and friends. I should have gone above and beyond for this project and been involved with it more in school, but I did a lot with my family. We've made sunday dinner and breakfast every weekend! I'd tell my boyfriend we had to set aside days to make dinner together or snacks. It was something to do and now I love cooking. At first my goal was to be able to cook gourmet food, which I did in some areas; but my outcome was spending more time with my family and friends. I know I achieved success with this project because it's made me happy and given me bonding time and much more than just cooking.
