Hey guys !
Been a while I wrote on my newsletter and It may seem like a small time but its seems like ages to me .
This month went so fast that I can't believe today is the last day In September .
A whole lot of things occurred and I am really grateful that everything took place both good or bad.
Its been really tasking for me juggling work with online learning but the advantage is that this process is preparing me for something greater and more spectacular in life .
Two days ago,I missed some classes on my course and i experienced a burnout i never imagined .
I felt tired and exhausted,I wanted to give up and just quit “After all ,I can always go back and do it “.
I resisted the urge to open my emails and do the tasks glaring at me from my computer.
I got a rejection letter from a writing job I applied for.Of course i felt like i wasnt worthy enough to do that job or that my testimonial wasn't good enough but in all , I made the decision to move on (considering the fact that i prayed and fasted on that job ).
However,what I am trying to let you know is that failure is part of life and that we all have to embrace them whether you like it or not .
If you don't experience failure or rejection at a point in your life ,you haven't started life oo Auntie/Uncle .
Failue may be seen lack of success or neglect or omission of expected or required action .Or other definition you can give it .
It seems that failure tends to be more public than success.
Or at least that’s what we perceive it to be. We fret it, we try to avoid it, and we question ourselves every time we have unconventional ideas.
But the simple truth is – no great success was ever achieved without failure. It may be one epic failure. Or a series of failures like Thomas Edison story of the light bulb .
According to this great philosopher “ Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.” - Denis Waitley
When you feel like you have failed in life, it can be difficult to feel motivated and identify the meaningful messages we are intended to learn, mostly because we are too angry or broken-hearted to look for them.
Here are so things which are helping me to overcome failure ,you can also use them as well .
||Remember that same courage hasn’t disappeared just because it didn’t work out the way you’d hoped.
|| Celebrate your willingness to try and note that this is the same spirit that will fuel you as you move forward and try again or try something new.
||Reflect and identify the key factors with utmost honesty.
||Be accountable to yourself-seek for ways to improve in that situation or task .
||Let it go, and free up space to take your next steps. Besides, you have plenty more failures left in you.
Final thoughts
The bitter truth for me and you is that as long as we are doing something,we will always experience failure sometimes,but please don't give up .Thres’s a reward for success.
