I F*cking Love Failure! (Embracing Failure as Part of Growth)

Ok, I’m not completely off my rocker, but here’s the thing... 

Failure ALWAYS leads to something good. 

Does it suck in the moment, absolutely!  But does something shift because of it, hell yes it does!  But here’s what else…failure tells me I put myself out there and didn’t avoid the thing.  Anyone with low confidence or some level of anxiety knows that avoidance tends to win when it comes to stepping out of our comfort zone or trying something new.  So at least if you fail you didn’t let avoidance win, right!?

And what happens when you take action instead of playing small and holding back?  You build a teeny little bit of confidence, EVEN if you fail! 

Every time you take action, every time you refuse to hide or avoid, every time you feel the fear or nervousness or whatever and you push through, you’re changing your patterns and beginning to build up your confidence. 

The other thing about failure is that it truly is the fast track to success! 

If you separate the pure facts from the bullshit your loud inner critic tells you when you fail, and simply use that data as a reference point, or look at it like an experiment, you have this awesome opportunity to evaluate what you learned, what you can do different, and what you’ll do better next time.  Zooming out like this and understanding that:

1. Everyone fails

2. Some of the MOST successful people got there by failing a lot, and

3. There are so many great learning nuggets in every failure, it removes the shame, self-doubt, and other awful feelings, and helps you powerfully move forward.

Someday, you may even get to the point where you can laugh at yourself when you fail.  It’s ALL ABOUT PERSPECTIVE.  If you choose to see it as a big scary thing to avoid, it will remain a big scary thing and you will continue to avoid.  But it literally is a choice, and man, what if success is like RIGHT THERE, just right around the corner if you just chose to try!?
