Dr. Emmanuel Bortey Borketey, the Chief Executive Officer of Charger Limited, a renowned beverage company producing Happy Man Bitters and other beverages, recently shared valuable advice for young individuals facing failure. Speaking at a birthday dinner held in his honor on June 23, 2023, at the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel, Dr. Borketey emphasized the importance of not giving up due to setbacks and instead embracing failure as part of the journey to success.
During his speech, Dr. Borketey acknowledged that failure is an inevitable part of life and that the true value lies in the lessons learned and the ability to pick oneself up after experiencing failure. He expressed concern over the rising cases of suicide and other extreme actions taken by individuals who feel defeated by failure, emphasizing that such reactions should never be the solution.
“The journey to success is unwinding and not always smooth,” Dr. Borketey explained. “At some point, you may face failure. However, that should never deter you from achieving your ultimate goals. My own journey has had its fair share of obstacles, but I continue to persevere because I have set goals that I am determined to achieve. I have experienced failures in various ventures, but what I have always done is dust myself off and refocus on my objectives. This is the mindset that the youth should adopt.”
Dr. Borketey also acknowledged the significance of faith and spirituality in his personal growth, stressing the need to seek the face of God in all endeavors. He recognized the role of divine guidance and support in overcoming challenges and achieving success.
