"My definition of failure became not about the outcome, but about not trying."
A few years ago on a podcast with Tony Robbins, Sara Blakely told the story of her father's nightly routine.
As his children returned from school, he would ask Sara & her brother one question:
"So what did you guys fail at this week?"
As Sara tells it, her father would be disappointed not if they failed, but if they didn't.
For her, "it flipped the whole model on its head."
Her father was changing her definition of failure.
Instead of a negative, failure "became not about the outcome, but about not trying."
Another thing her father did (which I love) is ask his children "what benefit or what positive" came from their failures.
In Blakely's words, this "trained our brains also to find that––and then it became, of course, I want to try these things."
In short, the focus shifted from the outcome to what she could learn through the process.
My thoughts:
When I was younger I would always hear people say "to enjoy the process" but to be honest, it never really resonated until later on in life.
As you age you begin to realize that the outcome, while still important, often turns out to be different than what you expected it would be.
Maturity is knowing this at the outset.
Things will change, pieces will break, and the path will be far from straight.
Appreciating the experiences, relationships, and errors along the way is where real growth occurs.
Each of these shapes the person you become.
The Stoic philosopher Seneca once said: "A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials."
To avoid failure is to avoid progress.
Change your definition of failure.
Flip the model on its head.
Thanks for reading.

I don’t want to say life is unfair for rich people but it’s a disgrace I got no power trying to survive a hurricane in Miami instead of apple picking cause I got to save millions of dollars in taxes
The Democrat party doesn’t want equality for you or to help people out of poverty.
The Republican Party doesn’t want to defend your rights and uphold values.
They just want to create a big enough show so your distracted while their owners rob you blind.
Wake up.
