Fail is NOT an "F" word!!!

Since when did the word "FAIL" become a dirty word????  People say fail and you'd think that another "F" word came straight out of their mouths!!  I think it's high time that we started a new movement-changing how people think about the word fail!  Take a minute and recall a failure you've had-for me, that would be many, many times to choose from.  Yeah, failing is painful, it's not fun and at the time it makes you feel pretty bad BUT on the other side, what did you learn?  I mean, really think back and when the hurt, embarrassment or pain was over, didn't you learn something?  First and foremost I know I learned what NOT to do the next time!  But there's the lessons we learn of what we can change for the next try, who we should and shouldn't associate ourselves with, how to adjust our thinking so that we can make different choices.  There are no big Eureka! moments in this world-those are the final results of many, many failures!  No great invention that's come about in the last thousand years was just some spontaneous occurrence, someone had to try and fail, try and fail sometimes hundreds of times before they got the final result which was SUCCESS!!!!  Mozart, Edison, Picasso, Ford, Carnegie, The Beatles, I could go on and on and on but they were all huge failures!!  Think of the hundreds, sometimes thousands of times they tried and failed before they failed enough times to learn what to do to succeed.  What if they would've just said, "Oh screw it, this isn't working, I'm no good"????  I don't know about you but I would be a very sad girl if I didn't have songs like "Yesterday" and "Yellow Submarine" to sing along to in my car or a light bulb to turn on when it gets dark in the room!!!  So many times in my life when I've failed I got hurt, sometimes even humiliated but guess what I LEARNED!!!!!  If I didn't fail, I wouldn't have known what to do the next time, or the next time so that I could see success.  SO again, I say it's about time we all stop seeing "FAILURE" or "FAIL" as a dirty word-let's all celebrate the epic fails and keep going for SUCCESS!!!!
