Overcoming Failures to Reach Success

If you have been participating in our Inner Peace Program, then the belief you gained in yourself from the previous theme will be helpful when attempting to overcome the failures you’ll inevitably experience over your lifetime. This theme deals directly with overcoming failure.

Describing Failure

The word failure is often used to describe a situation in which your desired goals were not realized at a specific point in time. Many reasons could have played a part in your goal not being realized, and absolutely none of them have to do with your value as a person. 

Let’s break down some of the ideas behind unhealthy views of failure and see how taking a more positive approach can help you realize success:

  • If you are trying out for the high school basketball team and don’t make the cut, this doesn’t make you a failure. It simply means that under these specific circumstances, the coach didn’t believe that you possessed the necessary skills to play on this particular team at this point in time.
  • What much of the pain stems from when not reaching the desired goal is your attachment to outcomes. If you define your own value and worth as a person by whether or not you make a sports team, you’re setting yourself up for that ugly seven-letter word.
  • For this same reason, those who value trying their best regardless of the outcome have more confident and unwavering views of themselves.
  • You, too, can have this view when you realize that you’re not responsible for certain outcomes after you do everything in your power to achieve them.
  • If you’re not currently doing everything in your power to achieve an outcome, then start doing it today! If you already are, then sit back and relax, taking solace in the understanding that you’re doing everything you can and cannot ask more of yourself.

Evaluate

It may be worthwhile to step back and assess whether or not this is a matter of a deficit in a particular skill set or something in which allowing yourself more time to reach the original goal is all that is needed.

 

These are the questions that successful people ask themselves when encountering roadblocks to the outcomes that they want to achieve. 

As soon as you begin attaching your self-worth to these outcomes, emotion will likely overcome you, making you less capable of using sound logic to increase your chances of success later down the road.

Shifting Your Perspective

To overcome failure, you must experience a dramatic shift in your outlook on the meaning of failure and success. 

No matter how much you want to be a Hollywood movie star, if the steps that you are capable of taking to bring yourself closer to that goal are limited at this point in time, you’ll be subjecting yourself to a constant state of stress by continually expecting yourself to achieve more significant results. 

Final Thoughts

Patience will be your friend in changing your thinking about these fundamental concepts, and it is also a virtue that nearly all successful individuals possess in ample amounts. 

Remember: Never give up. Keep trying. Do the best you can and focus on the process instead of the outcome. The final result will be a success!

My name is Nikki Rhodes, and I was born in Louisville, Kentucky. In seventh grade, my mom, dad, two younger brothers, and I moved to Jeffersonville, Indiana. Jeffersonville is a small town located across from Louisville, KY, along the Ohio River. The locals refer to the area as “Kentuckiana.” I am so fortunate that Divine guidance led me to my soul mate in 1991 and blessed to still be together to this day. We are grateful for our awesome son, who became a legal adult in June 2019. Oh, and let’s not forget our six-pound Maltese named Eli and Red-Eared Slider named Lewis. I earned two degrees and a professional certification from Indiana University. I have an Associate of Science in Business Administration, a Bachelor of Art in Sociology, and a Post Graduate Certificate in Interdisciplinary Studies. Currently, through divine guidance, I am pursuing a degree in Metaphysical Science as well. On July 1, 2019, my husband and I left everything we knew and set out on a journey to follow our dreams. We began in Chicago, IL, and traveled Route 66 to Santa Monica, CA. Our son met us on one of our detours from the Mother Road while we were in Sedona, AZ. He then traveled with us the rest of the way to California. We are all currently enjoying our new environment as we settle in Northern California and happily live our Divinely Elevated dreams!
