5 Questions to Ask Yourself When Dealing With Fa= ilure

 

 

There=E2=80=99s no denying = the fact that when one experiences failure, it can be a crushing and depres= sing experience. Everyone has experienced moments of failure when the skies= were so dark that they could not even see a single silver lining in any of= the clouds.

Sometimes, it=E2=80=99s because we don=E2=80=99t= look hard enough. But we=E2=80=99re all human, and it=E2=80=99s ok to be d= own for a while. When we say for a while, we mean taking a few days or even= a week to recover.

During this period, there are 5 important= questions you MUST ask yourself. It would be an excellent idea to write ea= ch question down on paper and answer it in as much detail as possible.

 

1.= What caused the failure=3F

While it=E2=80=99s easy to point = blame at others and unforeseen events (and sometimes you might be right), i= t=E2=80=99s important to know what caused it. This will shed light on any a= reas that you may have overlooked.

Like Thomas Edison said, = =E2=80=9CI have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.=E2= =80=9D

So, you must pick up the lessons from the failure=E2= =80=A6 and rest assured, every failure has lessons within it if you=E2=80= =99ll look hard enough.

 

2. Could I have fixed it=3F

You kno= w what they say=E2=80=A6 hindsight is 20/20. When you look back on a failur= e, it=E2=80=99s easy to feel =E2=80=98stupid=E2=80=99 because people often = feel that they should have seen it coming. However, this is often not true = because we can only operate with the knowledge that we had at the time.

So, after failure, we=E2=80=99re often wiser. If there were thin= gs that you could have fixed to prevent the failure, now you know what you = need to do =E2=80=93 and you can try again! That=E2=80=99s fantastic.

You only fail when you quit=E2=80=A6 but now you have the knowle= dge to come back stronger and better.

In situations where you= really could not have done anything different, then you should just come t= o terms that life has dealt you a difficult hand. For example, the millions= of restaurant businesses that started in early-2020 only to be told to shu= t down because of the COVID pandemic.

There=E2=80=99s very li= ttle that these businesses could do differently. It=E2=80=99s not always yo= ur fault=E2=80=A6 and if you couldn=E2=80=99t do anything about it, there= =E2=80=99s no need to be so hard on yourself.

 <= /p>

3. Did I do my best=3F

Sometimes, we sabotage ourselves. Nowhere is this more evident t= han with people who are trying to lose weight. They may struggle for a mont= h or two to eat right and suddenly they slip up for weeks and gain back all= the weight they=E2=80=99ve lost.

They could have prevented t= heir failure, but they didn=E2=80=99t. It=E2=80=99s important to understand= why you=E2=80=99re sabotaging yourself. Very often, it=E2=80=99s due to in= grained patterns and habits within us.

Once you understand th= e behavior loop, you=E2=80=99ll be able to break the loop and act different= ly. John Assaraf=E2=80=99s book, =E2=80=98Innercise=E2=80=99 is excellent r= eading if you=E2=80=99re in this situation where you=E2=80=99re causing you= rself to fail.

 

4. What are my options now=3F

After failure,= it=E2=80=99s important to look at where you stand. Are you deep in debt or= are your finances stable=3F Has your reputation suffered=3F How=E2=80=99s = your health=3F

In most cases, you=E2=80=99ll find that most c= onsequences of failure can be remedied with time. Even in cases where there= is massive debt, you can find a way to work to pay them off.

It won=E2=80=99t be easy, but the failure is not fatal. It=E2=80=99s jus= t painful=E2=80=A6 but one has to move past it.

 = ;

5. What=E2=80=99s next=3F=

The 5th and final question is simple =E2=80=93 what will you= do next=3F

Setting new goals or changing your approach after= failure will help to motivate you and lift your spirits. Henry Ford was fa= mous for saying, =E2=80=9CFailure is simply the opportunity to begin again.= This time more intelligently.=E2=80=9D

It doesn=E2=80=99t = matter if your naysayers are laughing or saying they told you so. Those who= never make mistakes in their lives usually never try anything new and sit = happily in their comfort zone=E2=80=A6 and by default, they=E2=80=99ve fail= ed.

Always remember that failure is not the opposite of succe= ss. It=E2=80=99s a part of it.

Armed with this knowledge, now= you know that you can try again and do better this time. Your dream doesn= =E2=80=99t have an expiration date. Keep trying. Success will be inevitable= .
