Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.
