I’m not so sure my original post made it through. It just disappeared in the middle of writing it so I’ll try again and just hope you don’t get two. You said a number of things that were thought provoking, but there were 2 that left a significant impression. The first is when you asked — what is failure anyway and what does it mean. The second was that failure does not define me or who I am. Wow! Falling short of a mark we have set for ourselves doesn’t have to be a devastating event at all. The “mark” is relative anyway since we define it for ourselves, right? Part of the key is putting it into a perspective that doesn’t damage our self-concept.
I appreciate the quick follow-up to my request…thanks.
Yes! The mark of success and failure is ultimately what we decide. Looking anywhere else is going outside of ourselves to a source that we believe is “better” than us. But there is no better. We are all of equal worth. I’m covering this more in depth today in day 22.
