How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success?
Well, I really have no great answer. Keep trying? Prepare differently? Sometimes there is no perfect answer on how to handle failure. We want to learn from it. Sometimes the barriers to success are overwhelming or impossible.
However we can keep things simple. We can still help our friends and family and ourselves however we need to define what success is.
I personally like to think of success in smaller items. Like I successfully helped someone with a meal, or took them somewhere, or just listened, or simply said hi. Success in small steps I think can help. Maybe we volunteered and success is seeing people smile, or get fed, or get something they need.
So, success to me can mean helping. May not solve their issue or problem but I can at least lighten the burden???
