It posed an interesting dichotomy between failure as not trying at all versus trying and not living up to the expectations we, or others, have placed on ourselves.
Louise stated that failure isn’t about not succeeding. It’s not about the plans that didn’t pan out, the unexpected detours, or even the outright setbacks. For me, failure it is finding out for yourself that you have not been your best at whatever you have applied yourself!
I feel that the sudden turn of events is somehow still reverberating through me on some level. I have come through many challenging times in the past few years and was just getting my life on track and enjoying some greater ease. Now this. Its an emotional rollercoaster and its important for me to return to and maintain my equilibrium.
Many of us have been conditioned to see setbacks – large or small – as a shameful failure. We make our best efforts wrong. Viewing them from the lens of failing forward means that we see what we have achieved as part of the journey to the desired outcome. This fuels us to keep going in the direction we want to go and not to give up. So here’s to the Success Salsa: one step forward, two steps sideways, and some laughter sprinkled in!

We see through different lens.
I had no fear. I had curiosity. I felt at home, safe, and at peace. Things were simple then. I trusted and I was open to where things would lead next. I did not have a 1-year or 5-year plan. I did not know of anything outside of the moment I was in. All I knew was that the magic was right there, in the moments, and I didn’t want it to end.
In Amor Marquez Chibanda’s post, Letting Go To Overflow, she suggests that it is our attachment to “my” that blocks our own flow of abundance.
The Disappearance of the Universe reminds us of the illusion of life. Whether enjoyed as fact or fiction, it’s definitely something to think about: If our real life is actually a dream…
The new year has begun. How many of us are still clinging to old emotional baggage, and past traumas? Here are some quotes that reflect on the power of letting go of the past, offering insight on how to better embrace our desired narrative on a fresh page, a new day, and a brand-new year—dissolving the old and stepping into the narrative of freedom.
There is only one queen in a hive of bees or colony of ants, yet every single worker has a vital role to play in ensuring the success and continuation of the community and the species.
