Why I get excited when I fail.

Sounds crazy right? Being excited when you fail has got to be the most twisted and delusional thoughts anyone would have, but then, I am and will continue to be.

Well, it is what it is.

There is no imperfect man out there from what I have seen and how I have seen the world play out. Everyone is perfect and always right in their own eyes and will defend whatever they do with so much vigor, (you will say just as I am doing now... hehehe).


I Feel Blessed!


To know success, you must have failed like a dozen times.

To know what success is, that individual must have failed like a dozen times because it is only then he can identify what isn't failure and what is.

Living with a set mind that, "you cannot fail", means you haven't yet started to live and are still being spoon fed, or maybe, you are an experts at what you. But, experts still fail and they will continue to fail while winning.

  • Elon Musk recently failed.
  • Legendary investor and the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffet also did fail recently.

    There are a list of so many people who failed, but I just dropped these two because, these guys happen to be on my list of the good and smart ones.

The scare.

The scare sends us all running into holes like the ants, but unlike the ants who actually live in these hols with everything provided, humans, have nothing to do thee but to cower away while grabbing at self pity.

If you haven't failed, then you haven't yet started living. 'Failure is kind of like a measuring tool to gauge if, someone has actually ventured out of their comfort zone.'

I recently failed and even if I am yet to get over the pain, I am just taking my time to not stop trying.


The ability that I had when I started out on that venture, just got kindled up more with so much fire that, I am now thinking to get into the show again and win.

No one wakes up and plans to fail and no one is born a failure. Things just happen that positions you to fail and no matter how you try. You just get hit by some very funny stuffs that results in seeing you landing on your back.
You could be doing everything right and just when you think you are getting it right as well, someone somewhere within or outside your team, just pulls the rug from under your feet and you fall face down.


Don't be deceived, I CRY a lot.


Whenever I fail, I don't smile neither do I celebrate, I just hold myself down and cry. I cry so hard that it hurts and I have all these catarrh slime running down my nose, tears running down my eyes and the little grunts and sober escaping my mouth most of which I try to stifle.

But then, while crying and being in so much anguish, I ask myself what is the next thing to do? Because, after that moment of bewailing my loss, I need to get up, wash my face, pour myself a stiff drink and then move on.

Failing and having failed shouldn't have you condemn yourself, it becomes a thing of the past when you move into the next hour.


Get excited.

After every failure, some go on to live a life filled with regrets and continuous knowledge of how they fared badly. While some (like me), pick up themselves and put their best feet out.

I simply get excited not because I like to feel pain, but because I get inspired by the pain of having failed and then, I push myself like never before. I just believe that, there is nothing impossible when we believe.

It is possible to fail, it is possible to have bad friends, it is possible to be surrounded by unmotivated people, it is possible to have your most trusted person screw you over, it is possible to lost out completely and it is possible to always be the guy who helps everyone up but never gets up.

What isn't impossible is your ability to rise up again from the ashes like a Phoenix.

Get excited and smile more. The worse to happen is your demise form this earth where you will no longer be able to compete but as long as you are alive, don't give up!


Make the world a better place for someone today!

Today I saw the whole world fall apart. And I felt incredibly happy. Thanks for your post.

The world falling apart won't stop it from existing. It starts and ends with us and how we keep our mindset in play.

Stay Awesome!
