Everyone in your family who has gone to great academic or spritual heights failed at least once in their studies. Some of them did more than that. But it did not prevent any of them from touching the stars.
Did you ever realize that everyone in your family who is someone in a profession, in a Christian ministry, or in a profession plus ministry, failed at least once in their entry level academic career. Your father took a leisurely 5 years to complete his BSc and then went on the become a silver-medalist [second rank] at the MSc level and a Summa Cum Laude appreciation from the external examiner for PhD — oh, by the way, you were there to hear those comments and to see your father blush, not at the comment but at his ignorance which took him to Summa Cum Laude level. Just imagine what would happened if he were on a level a bit higher than this ignorance.
All intelligent people should fail at least once in life!
The best thing to do when you feel said is to eat alot of cakes until your heart stops. But all kidding aside, never give up and never surender (unless they have guns).

Success is not forever. Failure is not final.
