The picture above sums it up quite well.
Failure isn’t a bad thing. Even though we’ve been conditioned to think that. I’d venture to say that failure is actually a positive.
You may have seen the meme of the acronym F.A.I.L. standing for
First Attempt In Learning
Every time you fail, it’s not a negative, it’s actually a learning experience.
It’s when we have failures along our path of life that we learn, grow, change and move forward.
Be grateful for all the times you have “failed”, and change your perspective on them. It isn’t a bad thing. It doesn’t make you a loser. It is an important stepping stone along the way. It might cause you upset, shame, embarrassment, anger, when you don’t achieve whatever it is you’ve been striving for.
And that’s okay. You’re allowed to feel however you feel about falling short of your goals. But that doesn’t mean it’s the end and that you should just give up.
