Failure is not your name. It describes neither who you are nor what you can be. Madeline Alvarez dreamed of being a registered nurse in the emergency department. She failed the National Council Examination test for the licensing of nurses twenty-two times, but she never quit. She didn’t let embarrassment stop her or let society judge her. She never stopped praying or trusting in God’s plan for her. In this powerful book of faith and perseverance, Madeline shares her stress, tears, and anger in the face of failure, and her personal testimony of the power of grace in her life as she charts her metamorphosis from a failure to a success, from a lowly caterpillar into a beautiful, high-flying butterfly.The first in her family to earn a degree, Madeline explains why she believes that those who never fail will never appreciate the deep satisfaction that comes when their dreams finally come true. She put her faith in God and tried again. Failure humbles us, teaches us compassion and empathy. These attributes have made her a better nurse and can teach us all to be better people. The hardest tests we face sometimes are those that come from within us. See yourself as God sees you. Sometimes the path to success is failure. In the face of those tests, we must learn to put our faith in ourselves and in God and trust that if we never give up hope and keep praying, we can achieve our dreams.
Sometimes the hardest tests we face are those that come from within us. Faced with failing a national nursing test twenty-two times, Madeline Alvarez shares her journey from failure to success through the power of her faith and unwavering trust in God’s plan for her.
Failure is one step closer to success.
