Frustration is a feeling that one experiences when one falls short of expectations and is denied some sort of achievement. Frustration makes one feel dissatisfied and unfulfilled. Frustration makes you feel uneasy and you can lose your temper or even get mad on someone if you are frustrated. Frustration is painful and inflicts suffering, but it precedes success, most of the times. In the words of Chuck Noll, “A life of frustration is inevitable for any coach whose main enjoyment is winning.”
Despair and frustration at work always shakes you from within, but the hallmark of a champion is resistance to both frustration and despair. In the words of Dorthea Brande, “All that is necessary to break the spell of inertia and frustration is this: Act as if it were impossible to fail. That is the talisman, the formula, the command of right about face which turns us from failure to success.”
