This week’s question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from someone who wishes to remain anonymous.
Hi David!
My question is short and sweet. How do I turn my failures into success very quickly?
Fantastic question!
The key ingredient in turning a failure into a success is to not see “failure”.
Let me explain.
Failure is a judgment placed on a result.
The problem lies with how we FEEL about failure.
When we fail, we attach meaning to that failure and it triggers our core belief about ourselves. We say things in our mind like, “I’m not smart enough, I’m never going to succeed, I can’t believe this isn’t working, what’s wrong with me?”
And this is how we get pulled into the emotions of our subconscious programming, and we get stuck in failure.
The truth is that failure is nothing more than a result. And the purpose of that result is our own growth.
When we do not get a result that we like, we need to look at that result through the eyes of a learner and ask ourselves questions to help us understand why we did not get the result we wants.
A couple great questions to ask are:
What don’t I understand about this?
Why am I choosing to experience this?
How is this result serving me?
Who do I need to be to get a different result?
The most successful people in the world have experienced more failure than success.
The difference is in their ability to not take the failures personally and to respond to them rather than being a victim of them.
