have you ever tried of failing or falling? well, i had and have tasted a lot with failing and falling. the emotion or the feeling is not right and good. there were a lot of negative emotions involved. others were sometimes affected because of such fluctuate of emotion. somehow, i would resolve by having self pity and depression and disappointments. oftentimes i would tell myself enough. don't move on anymore. it is just the same. doing something would again fail me.. that is my responses when i failed. and in this life, there's never a day or month or year that i did not fail. many, many times i had fallen and fail. more so, the responses during the moment were also destructive to others. somehow i would run away from persons or the situation so as not to make the pain so hurtful. but right now, there is an interseting book which entitled: Failing Forward. well, i guess you know the writer.. but the title itselg is eye-catching because of the meaning of those powerful words. i asked myseld and even asking up to now, How to fail forward? how will i ever fail forward? it is ridiculous i should say.. but it holds its truth and reality though. oftentimes, the reaction during our or my failures is not to work on anything anymore.. run away.. and sleep.. but the same is the result too. there is no result. the problem still remains. and the failures is never resolved and is continuing to happen at all times because i was not learning from it.. it is difficult to really fail forward, but to fail is easy (right?)..
failing forward is something.. but it takes some effort to really fail forward.. have you fail forward?

Failure is something that causes us negative feelings. Though its not always neagtice cause these failures can also be used as neagative reinforcementthat wil cause us to do better. EVen the scientists fail many times int heir quest for the truth but that doesnt stop from finding more and more solutions to get the right one.
When we fail its also an opportunity to get back on our knees and move forward.
Have a nice day and take care!
