The Importance of Failure


Listen Later

We have many emotions we love, and many we hate.
One that we hate is feeling like a failure. Why do we hate failing so much?

But like other emotions, it is great information for us.

In fact, failure is required for us to live well. Children don't learn to walk without falling - how do we treat them when they do fall?

So maybe it's time to give yourself the same compassion you would a child!

Here are some ways you can embrace failure, and use it to your advantage:
- Remind yourself "I'm learning to walk"
- Think upon what you will be capable of AFTER you learn to walk
- The righteous person gets up 7 times!

- If you have learned to fail less, you win! Keep going!
- Thank the failure, for what it revealed.
