What We Can Learn from Pink & the Brain

If you know Pinky and the Brain, then you know that they KEEP TRYING to take over the world EVERYNIGHT. Although they fail before the end of each episode, Brain always comes up with a different plan to achieve their world domination aspiration for each episode. They live a trial and error lifestyle in pursuit of succeeding, so why can’t we do the same? Well, our societies see failure as a shameful thing so when we do we think about what people are going to say/think about us, we also torture ourselves with solution-less questions like “what if?” We need to realise that sometimes we need to lose to find a new perspective for how we are going to achieve success.


In sport, when a team loses a match, they go back to the drawing board to evaluate themselves and to find a way forward. The only thing that keeps each team going is that they are willing to KEEP TRYING, and they know they wont always get it right, but either way they don’t let failure get in the way of how they play their matches.


A star is still a star even if it’s hidden by darkness due to distance. We are here now so why can’t we open our door to success before we meet our unpredictable end? Why should we continue to be the spectators of other people’s achievements when we can join them? Why must the next persons views be the slow poison that keeps us from working towards our dreams? Why doesn’t failure mean, just keep pushing than sit down in shame? Well… I don’t know about you but I would rather struggle working towards my success than struggle because of people’s views/opinions as well as the fear of failing. I am here now, so I will only stop trying when I find myself in a casket, until then, I will strive to live success.
