It happens all the time. It’s like a reminder to pause, assess and recalibrate to get back on track. Minimize the distractions and get focused again. A wake up call.
I totally agree!
This is exactly what I was thinking of too! Well said Kell!
Setbacks in my workouts always push mento come back harder and stronger.
Yes, I find this happens when I do weightlifting, If i fail at something like trying to bench a certain weight, it’ll tend to push me the following day and I end up doing it or doing it better. This frequently happens also when i’m working out regularly too, like running, shooting, etc. I try to always beat a score or time and if I fail it just pushes me harder the next time I do it
Many times!!! Most recently when I failed to qualify for a promotion because I lost sight of what I needed to do and focused more on what other people needed to do ( which I knew better than to rely on my expectations of the actions of others)
I have not missed it since and earn d a trip to Cabos San Lucas
It happens so many times!!!!
Definitely!
My 3rd year in college I failed psychiatric nursing. It was the 1st time I ever failed a class in my life and I was devastated. I remember my mother saying to me didn’t you ever think you would fail, To which I replied no! Who thinks that, lol.
When I repeated the class I was so determined to make sure I knew everything I needed to pass with an A. As a result of that focus, I fell in love with Is psychiatry and it has been my career choice since that time. Currently I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner probably because I felt that class.
Yes. I feel like that’s what life is all about. It’s full of failures and what it is you do as a result of them. I wouldn’t say that failure or setbacks propelled me to success but, I know that just looking at it as a simple moment in time, allows me to push through and become very successful in many things in life.
