Feeling Of The Month - Failure -

What exactly is "failure"?

It is defined as lack of success, non fulfillment, defeat. It's seen as something negative and everyone fear it; the thing is we shouldn't! It's "failure" that makes us better at things, it's "failure" that shows us if we're going in the right or wrong direction, it is failure what helps us get to success, so how can that be a negative thing?

We're used to believe that if we can’t succeed at something that means we're doomed, so what if you don't succeed? does that really mean that you are a failure? I have always gone by this quote: "what easy comes, easy goes" there's nothing more satisfying in life than getting rewarded after a long fight and hard work to get it, because it means you earned it!

If I had to use the word failure as a negative thing, it would be in not even trying, because there can't be success if you don't even try, there are lots of people that live in fear, the fear of not doing it right, fear of failing; and they don’t realize that they are failing by fear, believe me I get it, I would love to accomplish things on the first try and get everything I want, it's not impossible; but I know that it's not always like that, and I know that if things don’t go were I want it doesn’t mean that I failed, it means that I have to try harder. Walt Disney said once, and I quote: "all our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them" it takes courage to fail and try again until you succeed, so,  you haven’t really failed if you keep trying, failure is giving up! 

Keep trying, follow your dreams, don't let your fears become an obstacle but above all, never give up! At least I am not.
