Many times we will fail before we actually succeed…
The road to success is paved with lots of failures that we can learn and grow from and eventually succeed as long as we keep the faith and continued enthusiasm.
“Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.”
–Winston Churchill

A good read is What to Say When You Talk to Your Self by Shad Helmstetter PhD.
We all use self-talk and often this is negative, things such as I’m so stupid or I can’t do that.
This book clearly explains what self-talk is and how everyone unknowingly does this and how you can use this to make a positive impact on your life, by accepting more responsibility and becoming more aware of our thoughts, we can achieve more success, whatever that means to you in your life.
