Whenever the word failure comes up, it certainly brings up the feelings of dread,anxiety and fear, we all have experienced this at one point in our lives ,we there standing at the edge of challenges, being hesitant to take a move because we are scared of what might befall us yeah certainly this is what makes us human actually.
But somehow I believe that failure isn't something to be feared , but it is rather what we should embrace as it is like a stepping stone to many who view it in that matter.
As a person who has experienced failure so many times , I tell you today that failure isn't actually the opposite of success, this is what I feel, but rather failure is a big stepping stone, Yeah it is, as much as failure sounds like a very scary thing or topic , it is very natural to be apprehensive about taking risks of spending especially when what is involved high risk, but do you know that fear can hold you back from achieving great potentials
Because one is afraid to fail, we then want to stick to what we are used to, stuffs we already know and those things we are comfortable with, you know those things that we ends up on giving up on , because it is what we know, but somehow playing I saves feels like stagnation every time, and this makes it hard on people.
So how can we let go of this feeling of failure, instead of seeing it in a fearful manner, we should rather be ready to face failure head on and be ready to see it as a stepping stone to our success.
We need to firstly change our mindset, yeah, that is the first, that is training yourself emotionally and also physically to the point of not seeing failure in a negative aspect.
Also one needs to take calculated risks not just any kind of risks ,you weigh the potential benefits of taking such risks, it is essential to make sure that you are not gullible in taking such risks , you have to be smart in your doings,.when you are not afraid there is high chance that one bounces back from setbacks and somehow you keep moving forward.
You see this failure , it is like a teacher, it teaches you to learn new things and from there you continue to grow even while learning new things. You are likely to think outside the box and come up with some creative things ,when you are not weighed by fear of failure.
So yeah I say this, embracing failure will really boost your confidence in alot of ways.
