I wonder if I really know what it is to fail. To fall flat on my face and have to recover from it. Sure, plenty of ppl say they're afraid of failure, but if you've never really failed before what are you actually afraid of? I had an uncle tell me that if I wanted to achieve the success I needed to taken completely out of my element. How would that teach me about failure? It wouldn't, it would just place me in a circumstance/situation that I may not be verse in. Besides, who plans to fail at anything? How many people wake up and think "today's the day, today's the day I finally lay that proverbial egg". No one, failing happens, it's like a thief, you don't know when they're coming, you don't know what they'll take, you just know when they come you're gonna lose stuff. I've never been afraid of failing, I've never been afraid of not failing. I've never embraced failing either, I guess I I've always viewed failure as something that we all eventually go through (like breathing, we all do it because if you don't...well you know). An unfinished thought...
