Are you learning?

October 16, 2020
We all make missteps, mistakes, and just plain fuck up. It’s part of life and if you think you can avoid it you’re in for a bad time. I’d even venture to say that the most “successful” among us have made the most mistakes.

Getting good at anything takes hard practice. It also requires vulnerability and that requires taking chances. The bigger the chance the bigger the opportunity. Both to succeed and to fail.

But failure is only failure if you don’t learn from it. If you continue to make the same mistakes or missteps over and over again that means something needs to change. So what might that be?

Look, we will all fail from time to time. The only failure is the failure to learn. Get up, dust yourself off, and do things differently next time. There’s only one way to go towards your goals. And that’s forward.
