There is no such thing as failure. It's a win or a learning experience. Put failure into every project, especially ones you are good at. It is where improvement and breakthroughs appear. Brush your teeth with your non-dominant hand until brushing your teeth with either is the same. Plenty of places to practice 'failure.' The Media is failure as concept through and through. "If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves doesn't disturb us." - Hermann Hesse. Once you realize it is themselves, they are upset with, you can go about your day understanding even so-called failures make a difference in others. One day their light bulb will go on.
Hope so, hope that failure is just a building block as I've encountered an endless stream of it along the road, and hopefully it'll lead to immense success soon.
I hope so, I often feel like Rocky; 'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody’s ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I’m still standin’, I’m gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I wasn’t just another bum from the neighbourhood.'
Great topic that needs to be discussed much more often and from a softer position! The more you do means the more you quote unquote fail. For me this means I fail many days a week. Failure has been out of my vernacular for decades. Don't think about it.
Someone placed a poster on the wall, it read 'failure is not an option'. I placed a sticky note over it so that it read, 'failure is inevitable'. No one knew it was me, everyone was mad. 😂
Perhaps we need another word for failure? I like the C.S. Lewis quote. Thank you. I am getting ready to put some offerings out so this is beautifully timely. I am thinking perhaps we don’t ever fail at anything. We only experience people who resonate with us or not. We hit the mark or fall a little short. But why do we classify anything as failing? What a weird thing to do… I never really thought about it like this until now. In the end, we learn and we grow. I think there is no failure.
hahaha so good
In the entertainment business, a performer hears the word “NO” 90% of the time. That is discouraging so you learn to focus on the “10%” YESES”.
I like that!

Awesome!
Thank you, Alex. My favorite German philosopher and psychiatrist Karl Jaspers wrote on failure as beginning point of “existential elucidation” 😇
Ps: I think the link does not work.
I have to check out more of his work!
And for the link, highlight it and then press go, or copy and paste. For some reason I can’t make that link be a pop link on Substack.

A mis-take is a chance to do over with a better perspective.
Perfection is the highest perspective and that is God’s territory.
Absolutely!
