Failure isn’t that bad

In moment of sorrow and exhaustion, it’s only too easy to look back over the years and feel our lives in essence being meaningless. When we look into the past to realize how much of our plans have gone wrong, how many errors were there in our decisions, how many frustrated dreams we had to mayhem our hope. In the low, the support of loved ones and that motivational videos on social media have failed to elevate our mood. We feel deep loneliness within as we come across successful people. To feel like we can’t keep going, we just hit the bottom!
In that state of despair, I taught myself to perceive failure differently. To gradually accept failure as a part of the journey, now I’m looking forward to everyday challenges.

Here are some insights on how to bear with the failure

Practice your mindset.

Messing up isn’t a sign of evil and making mistakes does not have to be absurd. Not all the disasters were wasted. It’s evident of what we’re up against. Maybe we spent years not knowing what we wanted to do with ourselves professionally. Maybe we went through a failed relationship that left us confused and hurt a lot of people. But these experiences weren’t meaningless because they are necessary for later development and maturity. We all need the career crisis to understand our working identity; like failing in love to fathom our hearts.
