Looking at Failure from Another Perspective
Since birth, our family, friends, and environment have put pressure on us to succeed. As children seeking adult acceptance and attention, we all want to succeed. This success is measured how?
People define success as socially accepted and appreciated situations. Successful people, promoted by the media, etch success rules in our minds. Thus, we lose unwanted wars.
Do you ever find yourself in an unwanted struggle? If so, it may be because your desires differ from your expectations.
Most importantly, what are your success criteria and how do you judge yourself? In what instances do you succeed or fail? Should success and failure be opposites or distinct views of reality?
Knowing the answers to these questions and organising around failure is vital since we all perceive failure differently. What do we think about failure? Come see with me.
You may desire perfection if you perceive success on the first try as the only choice. Stopping halfway to your goal may waste your efforts because you value perfection.
Maybe you can't handle failure because it disrupts your perfection. Perfection is a myth! No living thing or circumstance is flawless.
As long as you keep going, failure cannot break your spell.
Failure is subjective, but it's not the end. Every failure is a stop on your success path.
Failure highlights your way. Does How? Focusing on success obscures your journey to get there. You focus solely on your target. Failure is different.
When vanquished, you see your way. That stone in your foot makes you pause, look around, and recollect. Travelling is fun. Failure pleases you.
After overcoming obstacles and succeeding, failure is simple to accept. There's also smiling through failure.
Enjoying the road goes beyond great events. It means enjoying the bitterness and pleasure of your road.
Failure reminds you of the path and indicates you're trying. Your mind thinks you're heading towards a calamity, but if you realise you're on the way, you'll be fine.
Whether it's your mistake or life's journey, you're not done. Lift your head and look—the path continues.
Think about your favourite spice. Success tastes better after failure, like spice. If you succeed quickly and easily, you won't like it.
Failure before achievement will leave a stronger taste. Imagine enjoying pasta to the fullest.
It can be eaten simply or with your favourite parmesan or basil. Failure can be your flavour. Your experience becomes more meaningful.
Perfectionists and those who fall to the bottom of the well immediately should pay attention: Failure is the best instructor.
The saying “One misfortune is better than a thousand advices” supports this. Failure teaches you new things on your journey to achievement.
Otherwise, you may not realise the information you will get when you make the error.
In the same way, ignoring signs will make you fail again and teach you. All types get the same result. Failure teaches.
