Surviving After a Failure

in #job6 years ago

You are only human after all, and as one, you are definitely not infallible. Some people forget this and when things go wrong, they beat themselves up, but it really should not be the case. People make mistakes because they are not machines that can be programmed to perfection. People commit errors and as one, you are entitled to commit a few in your life, but you should not allow such downfalls to destroy you.

Why Things Fail

People fail because of different reasons, such as:

Some people fail because of others. They could have entrusted a task to someone and this person failed to deliver, or this person could have deliberately caused for the task to fail, on the account of the other.
Some people fail because of their insufficiencies. These insufficiencies could be caused by a physical, emotional or mental incapacity. A person may be incapable to continue because they do not have the ability and the power to do so. If you do not have the skill, you cannot go on or if you still do, your incapacities can cause you to fall.
Some people fail because of an accident. These are things that are not supposed to happen; a miscalculation and misstep. These are not exactly expected but they happen all the time.

Do Not Blame Yourself

The common reaction after a failure, as soon as the effects have finally settled, is to put blame, and people usually put blame on themselves. It is normal. People blame themselves for all the things that go wrong, even if they are not direct responsible for it going wrong. By blaming themselves they are unable to escape back to their realities and are, instead, forced to dwell and reminisce on what they have done wrong and what they were unable to do. Failures can haunt people and it can bring catastrophic results to anyone but you have to understand that people fail all the time and the only way to deal with failures is to know how to take yourself away from it so that you can move on with your life.

Dealing with Failures

It is not easy to deal with a failure, especially those that have the true potential to ruin you. However, you have to understand that you cannot spend your life dwelling on things that have already happened, but you can pick your life and turn things around. You can go from being at the bottom of the pit, to at the top of the highest tower, if you will only let yourself. Move on and let go of what happened in the past. There are some things, in life, that you will not have any control over and you have to accept that they can happen at any time. Instead of letting things consume you, you have to find a way to move away from what has happened so that you can turn things around.
