Positive Outlooks Make Positive Failures

We’ve been told our whole lives that failure is not a good thing and it’s degrading when it happens. This misconception has caused many lost opportunities and negative mindsets that seek perfection in a world full of flaws. With that being said, it’s fairly understandable to feel sad and defeated after failure but what differentiates your failure from other failures is the way you interpret it in regards to your life.

If you ask yourself why do people interpret failure as losing in life, the answer is easy; because their outlooks and perceptions of life’s incidents are negative. Changing your mind into a positive place where visiting it any time feels comfortable will make your life a better place by introducing positivity to your thoughts, behaviors, speech, and the way you view your own failures.

With this positive mindset, you’re lowering your expectations and becoming more realistic about what could and couldn’t happen. Therefore, you’ll be ready for any hurdles that come in your way and have an idea of what the solution might be. Don’t confuse being realistic with not being ambitious; having goals and establishing a realistic achievable plan is being clever and careful but having goals and creating unrealistic expectations is being naive and ignorant. Further, being positive is a lifestyle where open doors are ahead of you and opportunities come running to you.

For example, as a middle child, he or she might feel left out and sometimes forgotten by some of the family members or more likely by his or her parents which could create this deep self-loathing feeling inside of them. In this whirlpool of negative feelings toward themselves, everything else will result in a negative response and reaction. On the other hand, an only child who is getting all the attention and positive reassurances of validation and love will probably have better positive responses and reactions whether to good or bad things. This is without the intervention of the concept of believing in a positive lifestyle in neither of the kids. So, it’s factionally true that even positive spaces and atmospheres could take part in creating positive failures. In addition, a positive lifestyle is also eating healthy and exercising; looking at life as a blessing where your body and mind are much more valuable than belongings. With a positive mind, space, atmosphere, and body, you’re reawakened to your new improved future of positive reactions and actions. In that sense, if life throws a failed attempt at you, take it and embrace it. Don’t hide it and engrave it because it’s what will lead the way to your second attempt and this is what’s called a positive failure.
