Haven’t you heard all the stories about failure?

Don’t you fear failing? Fear being seen as a failure? Afraid to make mistakes? To take risks because of how others will perceive you?

Failure, it’s a powerful word.

Failure stinks like a bag of sweaty gym clothes that you left in your trunk and forgot about

Eventually, the stench will linger all over your car and on you.

Failure can be a vicious pain, to some it’s a horrendously scary concept.

However, what if I were to tell you that failure is actually the most beautiful thing you can imagine?

That failing isn’t all that bad and that you should want to fail in life?

Take it from a perennial failure who’s a perfectionist, failure is my best friend at times.

Failure, My Best Friend?

I know, you’re probably questioning why a perfectionist would adore failure. Most of the time you’d think that perfectionists would abhor failure and do the best possible to avoid it.
