There is no way to sugar coat it – failure is frustrating.
We have all run into that issue where success feels a mile away.
You fail, you turn around and try something else and you fail, you use a different medium and you fail.
There is no going back, you have already crossed the Rubicon. No fall back. It is either success, or nothing.
The entire thing feels like a lesson in failure and frustration.
But finally, you get it. We see success, it is finally within your grasp – and we forget what it took for us to get there.
When we see the next problem – we dismiss the tools we gathered on the last go around. We start from scratch.
This is the true failure.
The best thinkers use failure to build their tool shed. I feel like I should do the same.
