Acknowledging Failure.

Sometimes, you need to just acknowledge that shit happens and you won’t always get it right at the first attempt. Heck, you might not get it right after 5 attempts. It is life and that's the reality.

This doesn’t mean you won’t ever get it right the first time. You just need to make that provision in your mind to understand that life doesn't always go as planned.

Many people who demonize failure praise and idolize inventors and scientists for their contributions to humanity. When they talk about these people, they tend to conveniently leave out the parts of their stories where they had to fail many times before getting it right.

Those who do not leave out the failure part of these stories still somehow tend to conclude that these people must have had some sort of superpowers and that the same concepts and ideas could not possibly apply to them or anyone else.

That’s simply not true.

We all fall while trying to learn to walk. The trick to getting it right is to not stop trying. Keep going -- it is what I've learned to do.
