Failure is part of life, but it took me a while to understand it that way. It wasn't easy for me to accept failure and move on with life. In most cases I will spend weeks or even months to keep blaming myself and never wished that it happened. But I suddenly discovered that as soon as I recover from it I will still fall a victim of another mistake that will take time to heal. As things continue this way, it became clear to me that no matter how perfect I may seem to be, mistakes are inevitable. As long as I am still in this life, I must in one way or the other make mistake. So, that means that failure is part of life.

HOW DO I HANDLE FAILURE?

Experience the say is the best teacher. To an extent I agree with that saying. I learnt that no matter how I try not to fail, I still find myself failing. In this way, I decided to accept it as part of life. Yes, I know that I am right. If I fail, I use it to encourage myself. I start preaching to myself even before others will come with either blames or encouraging words. I have already consoled myself and move on. This has been my weapon to overcome failure when it eventually comes.

Secondly, I live every day expecting to fail. Yes, I always tell myself that I don't even trust me. I only trust God to help me succeed in life. I remember once telling a lady who told me that they are all looking up to me as their role model to stop looking up to me because I can fail them at anytime. I told her that I don't trust myself. It makes it better for me to know that I don't need to be someone else just to please another person. . I just want to be me, and that me can fail at anytime.and when I fail, I will stand up and pick up the pieces of myself and keep moving. The only thing there is to know when I have failed accept my mistakes, correct it and move on.

Thanks #hive-naija community for giving me the Opportunity to share my life with the house.

Failure is also part of life but the most important thing is not to dwell on our failure but strive to rise again. When failure come knocking, we should admit it but shouldn't allow it to stop us in any way.

We have all been there. Not knowing what to expect from ourselves the next day. However, learning to put Faith in yourself is the next best thing after putting faith in God because your esteem means a lot to him.

The important thing is that despite all the failures and lemons life has thrown you, you've made effort to stand up and let go and push forward and that's what matters. I hope you're well and that you always have the best life has to offer.
