I think just the opposite: you will attract less failures by being grateful for them. The key is to treat each failure as a growth experience so you don't repeat your mistakes. In other words, you're more grateful for the lesson learned than for the fact you failed. You should be grateful for the failure, too, being that it was the vehicle for the growth you achieved, but your focus should be more on the lessons/growth.
