I'll put a positive spin on this: Replace "fail" with "not successful yet". Replace "not talented" with "not as skilled as I will eventually be". Now working hard uncovers weaknesses and things to improve.
- ChuckMcM 15y agoI tend to think that value is measured in failure. I know that I tried to teach this to my kids. That failure isn't a judgement its a result. Learn and re-attempt. If you fail several times then succeed it feels (to me at least) much better having succeeded than just succeeding right off the bat. The place where this gets dicey is the test scenario where you have only 'one chance'. When its possible to do test runs that you can fail at and practice it seems to help.
- spaghetti 15y agoI agree. What you wrote helped me remember a useful saying: "you always pass failure on your way to success."
