Believe it or not, failure is often a good thing. Doing so tends to teach you much more than when you succeed. It allows you to reevaluate and find ways to be better. When we succeed, it can be harder to motivate yourself to improve—since we’ve gotten the outcome we wanted, anyways. Consequently, all of the cliché conversations and quotes about failure are reasonably justified.
That being said, failure should not be glamorized the way that it is.
Failing Sucks
People that fail have negative consequences. If you fail in a relationship or with a friend, then you could lose someone that you love. If you fail in your business, then you wasted your time, other’s time, and someone’s, or multiple people’s, money. Failing in school or on an application is time you spent without a tangible benefit.Yes, There Are Positives
This is not to say that failing is all bad. As mentioned above, failing provides a great opportunity for learning. It gives you a chance to look in the mirror and reevaluate yourself.
