Failure

Lately I have been thinking (yes, it is difficult) about failure, mistakes, and regrets. Then I wonder how to acknowledge the fault, then learn something from the experience and (very importantly) move on.

Working in the health and fitness industry, a large part of my job is to assist clients in setting goals and then reevaluating when it doesn't work (i.e. when someone fails to complete a goal.) I want to learn how to move past mistakes and problems without letting it become an insurmountable obstacle. On top of that, it's a new year and the time where everyone seems to dread making resolutions, because they expect to eventually give up.

The question for you: is it possible to bring home an 'F' (or and 'E' (Thank you, BYU.)) and be happy about it?

Thoughts?

  1. Failure is essential, if you're doing something worthwhile. So, sure.
