Failure Is Not Bad

We all fail. It's just a part of life. And not only do we all fail, we will all continue to fail. And I think what we all need to take away from it is that it is not bad. In fact, failure can be very helpful.
That is, if we learn from our failures.
On the flip side, not all failure is good. I mean, if I fail to put on my parachute before I jump out of a plane...
That would be bad. Not good at all.
And no good can ever come from failing to put on a parachute before jumping out of a plane...
And you were starting to think this was going to be a serious post.

@RebeccasFarm Yeah, now that you mention it, I do remember that from some movie. Can't remember what the heck it was though.

@porwest I was mistaken. Apparently, I don't live by a river.

@porwest - Yes, not all failure is good! Sometimes, the lessons we learn come just a slit second too late!

I really like this topic of yours. When i was younger i always take it negatively when i fail. But as i grow up i got to learn that whenever you fail it is always an oppurtunity for you to bounce back and maybe be good at it next time you try. Thanks for sharing

What if the parachute fails to function? And it’s someone who has beef with you that has that parachute... would you say it’s a failure?
Failure is definitely part of life. And if you don’t try you automatically fail.

And sometimes we fail or do something stupid and DON'T learn from our mistakes. I can vouch for that. Have a great day.

If there is no failure there will also be no success. it's always in pairs. Failure can come sooner or later. In other words, success is the result of several failures.

Imagine a life with no failures, the world we live in is so perfect that we might lose the drive to improve ourselves or seek knowledge. Failure is here to remind us that no one is perfect and there is so much to know in this world. Stay humble and hungry for improvements and commit yourself to lifelong learning.
