Print Even Our Failures Teach Us Something
The next time you feel you've failed, ask yourself these questions:
Did I fail because of another person, because of my situation, or because of myself?
Did I actually fail, or did I simply fall short of unrealistically high standards?
Where did I succeed, as well as "fail?"
What lessons have I learned?
Am I grateful for this experience?
How can I turn the failure into success?
Practically speaking, where do I go from here?
Who else has "failed" in this way before, and how can they help me?
How can my experience help others someday to keep from failing?
The answers may surprise you.
