Failure exceeds any success I have because of the feelings and consequences it brings. When I feel like I've failed I feel an overwhelming sense of sorrow and regret as opposed to the happiness and excitement I feel with success I have experienced. I strive for success to an extent that can never be reached so bad that the feeling of failure is normal and expected for me.
I've learned, now, instead to keep my head high and make my thoughts stay positive. I've begun to strive for a reachable success and hope for good fortune. I have a pride so high it often gets the best of me. My new way of thinking is to act like the failure that only I view as failure will no longer effect me. I will then feel free and won't be as hard on myself. I want to be happy. I will be happy, and even though everyones definition of happiness is different, to me happiness is overcoming my constant feeling of failure. I want to enjoy the small things in life and learn to embrace all the successes in my life.
You have so many things to be proud of----much more than just your successes with school work, job landings, etc. You have to remember to acknowledge your beauty as a person-- your genuineness, kindness, generosity, and honesty that you so well exude and shower onto others to make their day bright.....Treat the beautiful person you are as a success to be honored every day!!!!!!! Love you!
