In Dare To Fail: The Other Side Of The Success Story, the author starts by introducing the readers to what success truly is. He then goes on to highlight the fact that people need success as well as failure in their lives, as it is the combination of both these aspects that makes life meaningful. Another important fact that is highlighted is that people cannot achieve anything worthwhile without struggling for it. The author goes on to say that people can use their mistakes as reference points for ensuring future success. The author then speaks on the topic of education and mentions how education was initially considered to be a useful tool for bringing out the best in people. However, the purpose of education in the world today is to merely help people secure a job in the future. Lim mentions that even successful people might fail at some point in their lives.
