In today's GB News Daily Reflections, we reflect on how failure need not be fatal."If you don't run, you can't win. When we step out, try something new and risk, there will be many occasions when things have started well, but then we fail or events simply don't turn out as we anticipate and we're faced with a choice. "Will we allow ourselves to become paralysed and curl up? Or will we grow wisdom, heal from the bruising and take action again?"
