Learn to Love Failures

In the past when I thought about health and wellness, the first thing that come to my mind was FOOD. Over the years I realized it is not just only about the food, it is about EVERYTHING, ON AND OFF THE PLATE.

How we think and feel about ourselves has a HUGE impact on our health and wellbeing.

When it comes to building and integrating new habits, we may come across failure. We are not taught that the key to success is through failure. We are not taught that failure is good. We are taught to avoid it. If you go through life with the philosophy that “failure is not an option,” then you’ll never have any good opportunities to learn.

Mistakes are your greatest teachers. Let them in. Mistakes are the catalyst we need to grow in just the way we need. Allowing them to be part of our experience allows for massive growth, learn and transform. Mistakes gives us wisdom, stories to share, solidarity, keeps us humble. It reminds us that we are human.

FAILURE = time to rethink what went wrong

FAILURE = a way to move forward and act on improving

FAILURE = teaches determination

FAILURE = moving through disappointments

FAILURE = courage, belief, optimism, resilience

FAILURE = choosing to do it in a new way

Let's see failure as a good thing. Let's not attach to our failures and identify ourselves with "I'm a failure," but instead see how it as I have experienced this and I have grown from this experience.

Here are some affirmations that I created to help you shift your beliefs/narrative around failure:
