Failure is only the opportunity to begin again more intelligently.
"Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success.", that's how scientific definition sounds. Its true that failure is a state, condition or you could say a phase, an important destiny deciding phase of life.
When we look in our past, we see that we failed number of times, and sometimes we felt shamed even. But failure is not something to be ashamed about. One should acknowledge that failure and take it as opportunity to learn. It might be difficult at the beginning but it is up to you handle it. There will be plenty of failures ahead, big and small, so we should make sure that we know how to handle it. Failure is when we strive to achieve a goal and the result is less than what we expected.
Basically, what we tell ourselves about failure is what makes all the difference. If we take a positive approach, we will learn from the failure, gaining vital knowledge and experience. Our self esteem will generally remain intact. If we focus on the negative, we tell ourselves things such as “Because
I failed to achieve this one thing, I am a failure as a person.” This is Toxic Shame, and it greatly affects our self esteem and our lives. Shame is a soul eating emotion. It will ruin your ego, your morale, your confidence.
Shame destroys the very part of us that believes we are capable of doing.
Failure is the key ingredient to success, if it's not there, it will ruin the recipe.
