Description

Some of us excel at some things.

All of us suck at most things.

We all fail.

What matters is how we handle that failure.

Do we beat ourselves up and stop trying?

Or see it as an opportunity to learn?

To grow?

To build on that failure?

Failing doesn't make you a failure.

It might mean you lack knowledge.

It might mean you lack talent.

It might mean you lack drive.

It doesn’t mean you lack value.

You are not the sum of your achievements.

You can always learn more, build better skills, or work harder.

None of this makes you any more worthy as a person.

Do your daily efforts affect your quality of life?

Of course.

How, though, is up to you.

Do you consider a good life one in which you never fail?

Or one in which you tried everything?

Gave it your all?

Learned who you are and what you love?

Pursued the efforts you saw to be most worthy?

Regardless of how successful you were?

A life like that is no failure.

It’s the greatest success for which one could ask.

You’ve got this.
