Thanks I needed that. I was feeling sleepy and was about to give up on my math exam but now I'll push on and study. For tomorrow.

Always try. Much better than never trying.

Wrong. Wrong wrong! That's conventional wisdom and has shown to be foolish. There are many times when you need to learn to walk away. A relationship, a project you don't have the experience on and need help or knowing when you're in over your head.

I disagree, never give up on yourself. Take all of what you have learned and do it differently. I do agree that it is insanity to rinse, wash, and repeat having not considered all of what you might have learned.

This though my friend is not insanity, it is learning, being okay with it "equally for the good or bad" and evolving through life's lessons.

So if you’re in a bad relationship keep trying forever and keep failing forever and don’t ever walk away and find someone that makes you happy? That’s dumb bro.

Find “how not to land a rocket” on YT. It really helped me comprehend the whole “you learn more from your failures” philosophy.

Just gave it a watch, forgot how fun it used to be watching those explosions on their live streams of the launch. So glad they ended with the video of their first successful landing

I told my 10yo son at soccer games; if he shoots and misses, I’ll buy him ice cream after the game. We’ve been eating lots of ice cream lately …but that’s ok …it’ll click

Really appreciate this. Failed my drivers test in December and have been terrified to drive again let alone retest. This is the first thing I’ve seen that has genuinely motivated me to think about retesting.

I really really needed this today! I keep failing but I’m still trying. Thank you!

Nothing wrong with taking a step back and trying again in a different way. But walking away from toxic people is also a thing.

sometimes losing is okay. Life is accepting both the positive and the negative, if you so choose. Myself not speaking for anyone here embrace it, plus it’s your thoughts and that has to be okay. I appreciate you. ❤️😀
