Falling on your face
is sometimes a vital part
of your learning process. If
you have not failed, you
haven’t tried. Creativity
grows with courage. Just
let go, throw away your
need for perfection. Learn
what works and what does not.
Fear stifles; success brings
more success. Go for it!

well, I just failed to succeed in a highs stakes battle
but I think I succeeded just for having fought an honest and clean fight
that the other side cheated and lied to win
so really, no matter what the legal decision was
the ethical victory is mine

so the perception of failure is really about what measurables you look at
and as long as you try and dust yourself off and get back up again
you still win and you can win over time, because learning from setbacks is a win and victory all on it’s own.

This is my biggest downfall…fear of failure and need for perfection from the start…
Your poem is very meaningful to me.
