Answer 1

1) Why is the saying, 'two sides of the same coin' important? It is so, because one cannot exist without the other. This applies to a lot of things in life, especially success and failure. As is very wisely also said, every failure is a stepping stone to success. There have been cases of people who have failed a lot of times earlier, but one success made them renowned all over the world for their hard work, dedication and effort. Failures too, involve those components but does not get recognised, everyone assumes they weren't enough or imbalanced to have caused the failure in the first place. But, people on recognise when you achieve a breakthrough or rather a success, that makes you an achiever. A failure is like a failed experiment, or the first time you do something, you tend to do something wrong because you have no experience in the matter and thus, do not know the process. A failed attempt makes you remember the process, which will indeed give you a definite success in your future endeavours. From my standpoint, a failure is far more important than success, for it gives you valuable life lessons, that you might never forget and thus, refrain from repeating mistakes.
