What would constitute a ‘failure as a human being’?

We as humans define ourselves so harshly and at best are worst enemies. See my friend life is about trying and no one earns success overnight. Therefore do not be so hard on yourself, and I know this is not easy as I too get into these slumps. You have to find a way to perk up some days and try, try again. Good Luck and be well.

We all have bad days. I'm sure you will be bouncing again. I think it works this way. If you think you are a failure then you're right And if you think you are a success, then you're right. It's all in our own perspective. So, look at yourself as a success. Think of all the positive things you have done and I'm sure there are plenty. And you will yet do plenty of more positive things.

I used to think i was a failure because I refuse to do what I thought others wanted me to do , i.e. go to college, or get married or have kids. since I could never see myself doing Any of these I considered myself a failure. and since I wasn't going to do these I thought after highschool, I promised my mom to graduate,I would die by my own hand! Thankfully , my mom Finally convince me All she wanted me to be is happy. No college, That's ok! No kids , ok! No Wedding? Hurray!! My mom hated weddings. So I don't look outside for the definition of a failure.I think failure is as personal as success. For me? I would consider myself a failure if I Didn't do my best at work, I didn't speak up when I Know I can right something that is wrong . Or when angered, I don't find the proper revenge! Bounce, you are not a failure! You have one of the hardest roles in life, being a parent. Do your kids love you? Do you spend time with them? Then you are not a failure!You are not a failure! Don't ever forget it!

As long as you are learning, life is never a failure. This often times takes interaction with others. Do that even if it is only on the internet. At the point where learning is impossible for you or anyone around you, God will make a change. Life is a funny thing. Sometimes we never see what our actions really mean to others. You are more important to this world and the people around you than you know. Sometimes even something as little as a smile can change another's life.Keep the light in your eyes. You are special. You are meant to make a difference in this world and will.

My personal definition of failure would be that I never made an impact on someone's life during my life. I'm not one of those people that aspires to be the best or the brightest with any one thing. Instead, I'm the kind of person that wants to make the world better for people. It doesn't matter to me if it is one person that I have an impact on or several people, but I do know that I want to make a positive difference in other people's lives.

No, no, what you mentioned above did not make you fail as a human being. On the contrary, if you cannot feel any hurt, worry, anxious, sad, low, happy, anger then you loose your humanity.

There is no such thing as a "failure as a human being." Every human being has worth, was put here for a reason, and each of us has a purpose. God doesn't make mistakes. If He made you,-and He did-you're a masterpiece!! God loves us and He wants us to love us.

hi bounce58 first of all i will advise you to have positive attitude to be successful..instead of thinking that what are the reasons of failure...think that what i should do to get success...its not necessary that you should influence others thinking and what they do...if you do your bit of thing its enough

Hiya bounce, Who was that Inventor that failed a thousand times before he perfected his system. I can´t remember who he was right now but if you think about it a thousand times is a lot of times to fail. Hey it was Thomas Alva Edison who said it was a 1,000 times he failed to get it right but he did not fail really as he invented another 1,000 ways of how not to make a ligth Bulb. That is what was going through my Head. He might seem to have failed but each time he did he learned another new thing of how to do it better the next time. If we fail as you call it we are just simply learning other ways to make it better for the next time. Although this is not about Inventors and all that it is the same principle you can apply to anything. Me I have felt a failure many times but I soon bounce back again ready to learn from "my failures". There ai´nt anyone in the World without them bounce.

For me, failure is when you give in to the trials and refuse to fight. When you let your sorrow overcome you that you refuse to move not just for your own sake, but also for the sake of the people who loves and cares for you. Life is a continuous battle. We must always remember that despite the tough times, we must fight because our loved ones will be greatly affected when we lose and be miserable.

hey there bounce! When we are stressed and feeling, we tend to have negative thoughts and this makes our situation worse. We should instead try to make ourselves happy and positive. Back to your question of what constitute a failure as a human being, I think it would be one, if we fail to provide well for ourselves, whether in terms of basic necessities or our emotional and spiritual needs. Also, if we keep making the same mistakes over and over again without learning.

Do not ever let anyone or anything make you feel like a failure. I have been through many hard things, but when you come out of them you have survived and thus you are not a failure, but a survivor. I believe that as long as I am alive, I can change any situation and thus never believe that I am a failure. Failure only comes when you decide to quit trying.

everyone has his own life in the world . so many people live here and there. no matter what you do , and what job you have . what 's your carrer.just do it well. then you can succeed yourself.there are not so many ways to choose for one people in the world . just choose one you live. try your best and you could get it . ok ? don't mind what you do ? ok ? just try it and with your best . then success is yours . best wishes.

...i believe failure doesn't exist..so long as you never give up on something, most specially your dreams and goals in life, failure will not exist and never will...there are just choices in our life, we choose one thing over the other, but that does not constitute that we are a failure...

Sounds like depression, start asking yourself questions when you can. Okay, to me failure is when you don't live life the way you feel that you should. Meaning, you should live your life to the fullest. Do as much as you can with your life while you still can. I have days where I feel depressed as well, but I still try to get up and do something. I still try to do what I need to do and have to do. You never really fail, but you fail to do something. Find something that makes you happy. Find something that fulfills your life. Just get out and do something.

i don't think that is what constitute a failure. i think no one is a failure. kids, adults... i would say if we come to terms with ourselves, know our potential, know what we can, or cannot do - we are as successful as the famous people we know...

Failure... I have attributed my life with this word before a few years during months of continued depression after I was ditched... Every human feels this way at times... And the reason are different for every one , everytime... Hence the definition varies all the time... According to me, when one is not happy with one's own life, it means failure... :( Pray to Heavens that no one goes through such feelings ever...

I don't really have a definition for failing as a human. Being human may mean that we witness failures and disappointments but we are never failures. There are the cases where people resort to crimes but, even then, it is only the murderers and the rapists that I feel have failed the human race. There is really no losing or winning in my opinion. There are so many different levels of these two things that there is no way to truely classify them. One person's loss is another's triumph. It just depends on the shoes your wearing. I think that it is what you believe on a personal level that really matters.

A failure as a human being would have to be an enormous thing. it would mean never caring about another person and tnever trying to achieve anything good in this world. Failing as a human being is just failing at life.

I couldn't define myself as failure as human being because everyone of us has our own imperfections.
