What defines success?

Copied this quote from another blog today. I've heard it before and it ALWAYS chokes me when I read it.

“I have missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot . . . and missed. And I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why . . . I succeed.” - Michael Jordan

I can relate to that because I was a basketball player. I've been on the losing team on the basketball court, I've been the person to miss the game winning shot. I know how that feels. It feels like failure....and it hurts. BUT...

If the opposite of failure is success, what defines success? I think success is getting back up and trying again when you fail....because if you never make that effort again, you'll always be a loser.

What do you need to get back up and try to do again even though it hurt the first time?
