Are You a Failure?

Posted by

I came across a thought-provoking post on Geeks today that asks: Are you a failure? My initial reaction, of course, (as yours probably is) was “Uh… NO. I’m not!” Then, I read the post and changed my mind. Among other things, the blogger writes:

If you are actively pursuing your dreams, you’ve probably already experienced some level of failure. The great thing about failure is that it just means you’re not there yet, not that you won’t get there. Wear your failure on your sleeve as a badge of honor!

By golly, in that case – I AM a failure! I try new things all the time, and not all of them succeed. However, I tweak and tune what I’m doing until it does work. If that makes me a failure, then so be it! I’ll wear it on my sleeve as a badge of honor.

So – are YOU a failure?
