[…] I wrote a blog post back in 2016 all about mistakes and failures. I’ve been thinking about that blog post a lot lately. Strangely, I’m in a very similar position now as I was when I wrote that post. I changed my mind at the end of 2017 which resulted in some massively huge changes. I learned a lot from an experience that some would label a failure. And instead of simply backing up and changing directions, I let fear keep me in a state of inaction. No more, friends. No more.

Man, you speak right to my soul. The past year or so I have felt like I'm right on the edge, ready to jump and try that next thing or work toward those big scary goals- but often I back up at the last second, not ready to try…. but you nailed it. What's the harm in trying? And really once you realize it's not working it rarely feels like failure- it usually just feels kind of meh, and then it's easy to move to the next thing. Thanks for the advice and for letting me work through my thoughts in your comment section once a week 🙂

Oh girl, I feel that way a lot. Especially right now. We're trying to decide if we should sell our house and move. I'm so afraid to sell at the wrong point, or pay too much in rent when our mortgage is so low. I have made decisions before and they were the wrong ones (life changing decisions) so now I'm gun shy. I need to stop being afraid. Things happen. That's life. Thanks friend. 🙂

I LOVE this! You're so right. We are often afraid of trying something for fear that we'll be stuck or that we'll "fail." I'm pretty sure no one thinks a Roombah "fails" because it hits a wall, right? I quite enjoyed that analogy! 🙂 Thanks for sharing your heart!

Brava, It's amazing what we actually learn when we feel like we've let ourselves down. I've tried a lot in the last few years when it comes to pursuing interests and, even if nothing ever comes of some of it, I'm glad to have the experiences. They'll serve me somehow.
We'll eventually get it close to right!

Like everybody else, I'm so in love with the Roomba analogy! And, as always, I admire your honesty. I think it was much more a learning experience than a failure, for what it's worth. :)
