Failure only occurs when you choose not to learn from an experience. There are valuable lessons to be learned from both good and bad experiences. And each lesson is preparing you for an event or a challenge that you will face later in your journey. You only fail when you refuse to recognize or accept a lesson and are forced to repeat it again rather than moving forward in your journey.
I say, ‘Failure is one of the most powerful experience that force many of us rethink, regroup, rearrange, reorganize, restrengthened, and then the REWARD. (Annelise Lords)
Failure should never be seen as a stop sign along your journey. It is merely a sign to suggest a change of course or direction to reach your goal.
I agree.
Love this post, too, about the value of lessons learned in the past if we will only strive to remember them as we move forward in life and can only say, “Amen, amen, and AMEN!”
In some cases, what appears to be a full lesson is only a part of the knowledge that we are meant to gain. But in time, the remainder of the lesson becomes clear and we are granted the full understanding and benefit of what we might have taken as meaningless and insignificant. Keeping an open mind and an open heart is the key…we do not determine the schedule but must simply be patient.
Yes, the open mind and heart are key! Bringing the two together by embracing a both/and perspective rather than the either/or world we’ve been living in for millennia is our greatest challenge and charge as our 21st century gets underway as we close in on the end second two decades. We CAN turn this around by doing exactly what you say here, Kathy! Another amen, amen and AMEN!
