Failure

Failure. Do you fear it? Most people do and if you are one of the lucky ones that don't, all I can say is you're lucky. Failure is something people see as something bad. Why? Why is failure bad? Failure. It has a negative vibe about it. I believe failure is one of the best things we have. How many times have you failed? Did you try again? If you did, why? What drove you to do it, to try again, despite not succeeding the first time? You see, failure is a teacher. A cruel teacher. One who gives the lesson the hard way. You will hate it, but you'll thank it later. Failure will teach you things victory will never will. What victory does is it builds ego. Failure builds character. You need to learn the joy in failing. How are you to do that? It's simple. Push yourself out of your comfort zone. Whether it be to ride a bike, or practice the subject you struggle in. It'll be hard, but it'll also be fun. Don't say things like "I don't have the self-esteem or confidence" or "I'm not good enough". What that does is destroy you even more. What you have to say is "I won't succeed in my first try. I'll try again. And again. And again. And again." The moment you succeed after failing so many times is something you can only experience. So I urge you. Get up. Learn a new skill. But remember, you will not succeed the first time. What is important is to try again. And again. I'll leave you with this: "A master has failed more times than a novice has tried."
