Failure sucks. There’s no other way to say it.

It sucks because…well, you failed! You didn’t succeed in what you planned to do. You didn’t measure up. You didn’t keep your promise.

It’s an awful feeling.

I just failed for the millionth time last week. I was supposed to post on my blog and social media every day for a week (different project – Nik Parker Writes). I didn’t even post ONCE beyond the initial post.

I “only” failed myself – but I still failed.

What did I do? I beat myself up and felt bad. Not optimal.

This week, I’m changing things up. Instead of beating myself up and making myself feel awful, I’m going to examine why I failed. And how to change things around to do better.

And I’m going to use these affirmations to change my viewpoint on my failure.

I hope you can do the same.
