3 Things To Do When You Fail

Who is perfect? Are you? If no one is perfect, then we can’t avoid mistakes. We can’t avoid failures.

Failures are lessons. They are not roadblocks. If you pay attention to what you are doing, why you are not getting it right, you can learn a lot from failure.

‘Don’t play the blame-and-shame game- just prove your critics wrong.’

George Beahm

Do not let failure stop you from doing what you love to do. To move forward, you must take risks.

You must, according to George Beahm, ‘Reinvent yourself.’ If what you are doing is not working, do not stop there. Do not stop there. Find something else and do it. Do not stop living your life. Do not limit yourself to just one thing. No, you can do a lot more than you think you can do. Why not give it a shot?

‘Learn from your mistakes, and constantly work to improve your life.’

George Beahm

When you fail at something, it does not matter what it is, according to George Beahm, ‘Don’t play the blame-and-shame game- just prove your critics wrong.’ You do that by working harder than you have ever done in the past. Do not do it to shame others. Do it to improve yourself. Because you are responsible for your life. You are responsible for your failures. When you fail, instead of blaming other people, take full responsibility for your life.

And when you fail, all you need to do is to step up your game. Do what George says. ‘Do great work.’ When you ‘do great work’, great things will come to you. And you will ‘start living’ your real life.
