Joy is an American comedy-drama film starring Jennifer Lawrence who

played as Joy Mangano, a self-made millionaire who created her own

business empire. In this movie, the value of hardship is emphasized specially
on the field of entrepreneurship. After I watched the movie, I’ve realized that
every successful entrepreneur has experienced failure. Failures of all sizes
provide a valuable benefit, they help to develop an entrepreneurial mindset
that allows them to keep pushing forward.

In the case of Joy, being successful don’t come easy and her story proves
that we have to accept the reality that some people don't want you to
succeed. This lesson set Joy back years as it does most entrepreneurs
because she want to feel everybody is on the team pulling for the company
that she love and own.

The movie's best lesson is get ready to go to war every day rain or shine if
you want to build a big company. Joy showed its always a multi-front battle as
you don’t just fight one war every day, you fight more especially when your
revenue starts to go up.
Also, If you want to be successful in creating a new market as Joy did, gather
feedback, ask for advice, and then do what you think is right, not what you
were told by experts, employees or friends.

It’s easy to look at a failure as a personal shortcoming, but it's healthier to

embrace failure as part of the entrepreneurial journey.Failure happens to
everyone.
You are going to fail at some point and that’s the reality of entrepreneurship. If
you go through life thinking that you won’t fail, then it will only hit you twice as
hard when you do. If you know failure is just around every corner, you can
respond more quickly when it happens and make adjustments to correct the
problem.
The final lesson I learned in the movie is that entrepreneurs can get ahead
over the chaos and dysfunction that creates the energy to build something
great from scratch. I don't think she would have made it without the ex
husband and dad living in her basement, a mom living upstairs addicted to
Soap Operas and still viciously fighting with the dad, three small children
below the age of eight, a live and loud open gun range next to where she was
designing the mop, lights getting cut off for late payments and constant
plumbing, cleaning and mopping that gave her the idea for the Miracle Mop in
the first place. No doubt there is a time and place for organization and
management in a company but both can be a challenge when launching a
new idea.

If you think failure isn’t a possibility, it will take you much longer to respond
and adjust. This can lead to multiple negative issues piling up on your back,
eventually crippling your forward momentum.

Failure is an opportunity to learn. It can teach us a lot. Everything leading up

to failure is a lesson -- the choices you made at the time, and the reasoning
behind your decisions. If you have the right mindset, you can dissect the
failure and learn from it.
