In a post written introspectively in the wake of the box office failure of "Black Adam," actor Dwayne Johnson talked about "having the guts to fail."

The 50-year-old wrestler-turned-actor uploaded a video to his Instagram page early on Thursday morning while delivering a motivational message about embracing failure.

Johnson wrote in the caption, “Tapping in with you with a quick thought that’s anchored my success (and failures) over the years that may anchor and help you too on your journey. "

He added, "Having the guts to fail is far more powerful than having the desire to succeed. Having the desire to succeed is very attractive. It’s sexy."

“While having the guts to fail is extremely uncomfortable. And sometimes it’s scary,” he admitted, reports aceshowbiz.com. 

“But guts over desire has served me all throughout my career – and when we put ourselves in positions to be uncomfortable – to have the guts to fail – we actually set ourselves up in a much more powerful way to WIN. It’s 2023. It’s our year. Guts over desire,” said Dwayne Johnson. 

Johnson went into more detail in the video about the counsel he received from his "good friend" Inky Johnson.

“He’s always got great perspective, grounding perspective. He keeps it raw. He keeps it real. He said something that was really profound that I feel ties into this whole thing: he talked about having the guts to fail,” he gushed. 

“And the reason why I bring that back around to you guys is having the guts to fail compared to having the desire to be famous, having the desire to succeed.” 

“But I have found in life, that the desire to become famous, the desire to succeed will never be as powerful as having the guts to fail. And I love that, because I look back at my own life, and around every corner, and still today,” he explained. uperman after Henry Cavill reprised his role as the Man of Steel in the post-credits sequence.
