In life, there is going to be times when you fail and have to find a way to get past the curtain situation you were put in. During this semester, there was a couple times that I failed in something's that I was doing. The one situation that comes to mind, Was when I was at work trying to complete a task that I was given to complete. I was given the task of reading a set of plans for the building we are in the process of building and chalking a line so the masons can lay the block to build the wall. Well, the first time I attempted to chalk the line I realized this was going to be a difficult task because the plans didn't give me dimensions to measure from. I chalked the line off of some demensions that I previously knew about and it came out wrong. I went to my boss and asked him what I should do and he showed me how to do it. So when I went back up to chalk the line, I followed the instructions that he gave me and chalked the line again. Well, come to find out I didn't read the numbers right and messed the line up again. On the third try I finally chalked the line at the right place. I learned that failing is going to happen in life and it is about what you do after you fail. You have two options when you fail. You can either fix the situation and not let it happen again or you can feel sorry for yourself and fail again.
Failure is something that is apart of life and something that will happen to everyone at one point or another. Failure can actually turn out to be a positive situation for people who take advantage and keep an open mind when they fail. You handle failure by keeping an open mind and learning from the situation. If you are har headed about failing, you will never learn how to turn failure into success. A lot of times, failure needs to something way better in the future. This class has really helped me with failure in my life. There have been some difficult assignments this semester that I messed up on and didn't know how to fix it. This class has taught me to keep an open mind when it comes to failing. Am going to fail, but it is about how I respond to failing and this class has taught me how to respond to it.
You seem to have a very positive outlook regarding failure that will assist you greatly in life. It is interesting how you struggled three times and were able to keep a cool head. Personally I have struggled to keep up with the pace of the class, often forgetting when an assignment was due. But your right failure is apart of life and something we should all learn from.

ReplyDeleteHey Zachrey, great job on your blog post! I really enjoyed hearing your perspective on how you "celebrate" failure. I share a very similar perspective that failure is a natural part of life and provides us with opportunities for growth, learning and improvement. I also liked your example; it was nice to read one about someone's "failure" in their actual real life, not just a class. Thanks for sharing!

Zach, this is a really unique example of failure. I especially like your reasoning for failure. I totally agree that failure is an important part of life and you either have to go back and fix your failure or feel sorry for yourself and fail again. I’m just glad that you have an understanding boss that was able to coach you through following the instructions rather than scolding you. Here’s my post about celebrating failure. http://jacobembuscado.blogspot.com/2016/04/celebrating-failure.html
