  1. You fail until you don’t.

    ashamedtosay:

    I was running (5K - because windy and vertigo and running do not mix) and I kept coming back to that thought. 

    You fail until you don’t.

    Everyone learns to walk differently. Everyone learns to read differently. Everyone is handed a spoon or implement and shown how to feed themselves and everyone fails at it; until we don’t. 

    The bike falls over again and again until we learn to balance. 

    We land on our diapered butts until we figure out how to stand. 

    You fail until you don’t.

    So why fear failure? Why fear trying and not getting it right? 

    Life is a series of you fail, then you don’t, repeat.

    This is what I needed to read today.
