We could not failed as a person

My cousin shared her thought about the recent HK TV Serial that she watched. In that movie, she learnt about a useful phrase. Let me translate the meaning of it in english. As human being, we could failed or go bankrupt in our businesses, however we could not fail as a person. It means we need to be responsible as an individual for every acts committed. Never run away from your responsible instead face it. When the business failed, we can start all over again, however when we failed as person, we will stay as a loser. On our daily life, including myself, sometimes tend to avoid the problems, that was not good. If we never face the problems, the problems will keep stay there.
