You become strong by defying defeat and by turning loss and failure into success.

I have tried 99 times and have failed, but on the 100th time came success.

Success is my only option, failure's not.

Of course I would have preferred success; but failing in that, I have no regrets for having rejected all advice to the contrary, and resolutely made the struggle.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.

Don't take 'no' for an answer, never submit to failure. Do not be fobbed off with mere personal success or acceptance. You will make all kinds of mistakes, but as long as you are generous and true, and also fierce, you cannot hurt the world or events.
