Hey friends, Chase here.
Ever feel like failure means you're broken?
You messed up. You launched something and it flopped. Maybe you put your heart on the line and it didn’t go your way. That sting? It’s real. No quote on Instagram is going to make it magically go away.
But here's the truth:
Failure isn’t the opposite of progress. It’s part of it.
We live in a world that either glamorizes failure like it’s some kind of badge of honor—or tells us to avoid it like the plague. But neither story is complete.
Failure hurts—especially when you care. That’s what makes it meaningful.
A bad pitch, a failed launch, a relationship gone sideways—if you tried, if you truly cared, then the pain you're feeling is proof that you're alive and in the game. It’s data. It's a signal. It's the exact thing that helps you grow.
So what's the play? Try hard. Ship often. Then do it again.
Don’t make garbage just to say you did something. Don’t fake effort to avoid real disappointment. Give it what you’ve got—then put it out there before it’s perfect.
That’s the sweet spot.
Not hiding behind polished perfection. Not pretending you don’t care. But showing up. Again and again.
And when it hurts? When you fail? Good. That means you're learning something that matters.
Failure isn’t your enemy. It’s your frenemy. You don’t have to love it—but you do need to make peace with it.
Until next time, stay bold, and keep shipping.
