What do you do if your self-confidence and self-esteem are shattered after failure?

It's important to acknowledge that setbacks are part of the journey to success. Don't see it as failure. Instead embrace failure as feedback - a valuable source of insight and improvement; and an opportunity to learn, grow, and evolve. Let it guide you towards success and fuel your growth rather than diminish your self-worth. At the same time, practice self-love and self-compassion; seek support from loved ones and mentors and draw strength from their encouragement.

Ah... I'd argue that "failure" is a subjective notion. Trust what success is (or isn't). There's the notion of internal (subjective) and external (objective) success. Know the difference.

As a human, you are going to experience some sort of setback or failure at various points throughout your career and life. I'd argue if you aren't failing at anything, you are not growing. But being human, it never feels good. Take the time to acknowledge how it feels, process it and release it from your body. Then allow yourself to reflect on what you learned from the experience and how to apply those learnings moving forward. Though failure never initially feels good, you can always find a gift in it.

Acceptance is the first step to recovery from any failure. If you live in denial, you will never be able to recover from it. So acknowledge and accept that something went wrong and then you will be able to focus on finding what went wrong and how can you avoid it in future.

Practice self-compassion: Treat yourself with kindness and understanding, just as you would a friend going through a tough time.

Gather yourself and bounce back with more power again. Reflect on the areas of improvement and start fresh for a better outcome. Always hold a "Never give up" approach. Your burning Passion will pull you towards your goal. Let it stay on and Act !!!

Never give up. Success is to flow like water through a road of rocks. Need to come out from comfort zone. People are at best when they are assigned challenging assignments. Keep Learning from mistakes and grow.

failure is the proof that you stepped outside of your comfort zone and this is fantastic. If you want to grow, you need to step outside of your comfort zone and if you do so constantly, you will definitely fail often! and it's ok! as long as you know that this is just part of the journey and you don't want to stop there!

There is a very interesting creative exercise to do. First, remember, all human beings fail, s you are a perfect human being, and then, in the creative exercise, ask yourself, how come this failure can be the best thing ever to you?

Never tell yourself, "I have failed" - always reframe and say "I tried but maybe there are lessons to learn to avoid mistakes in the future" - When you fail, you emerge smarter and stronger - Thomas Edison failed over 10k times before he could finally light the bulb. Each time he learned from his mistake and ensured he did not repeat the same. When he was asked about his failures he said "You look at it that I failed 10k times, I look at it that I now know 10k ways of how the light bulb would not light"

Failure and setbacks always take a toll on us - emotionally and mentally. So do not rush to get back to action ASAP. Take your time, take it slow and easy. Recover fully, understand where and what went wrong and ascertain your next steps. Set small goals to recover and you will see the small successes will add up to your positive frame of mind.

Set small, achievable goals: Break down your goals into smaller steps to build momentum and gradually rebuild your confidence.

There are many studies out there showing that using a coach to work through things can really boost results. Think of it as a process. As a functional nutritionist who helps women lose weight and reclaim their energy, I see this first-hand with my clients!

Ask for help is great, don't be shy to ask for help, is a strength, not a weakness, and it boosts growth. Asking for help is mature, not the opposite.

Surround yourself with positive influences: Seek support from loved ones, mentors, or a coach who can help you stay motivated and inspired.

Nothing would boost your confidence as much as seeing results! Understanding that failure is only a data point will help us understand that if we fail at something, it means we were outside of our comfort zone and this is fantastic, this is the key to growth. So, if you want more confidence, set realistic bold goals and move towards them and celebrate your achievements along the way.

Failure is a failure only if you take it as one. Every failure is a stepping stone to success. For me, failures are learnings which help me identify my mistakes, work on my strengths and weaknesses again and become better and focused to achieve success.

Focus on the lessons learnt. Is the project still relevant and worth your effort? Then challenge your assumptions and work on a different approach. Talk to your mentors and get an objective feedback. Just remember, if something is denied, better things are in store for you.

Remember, setbacks are a natural part of growth and can often lead to even greater success in the future. Embrace the journey, learn from your failures, and keep moving forward with confidence

Reframe "Failure" If "failing" has devastating effects on your wellbeing, then it's time to evaluate: 1) What actually happened, did you learn something? Is it a growth opportunity? Even seemingly mindless painful mistakes hold the potential for us to become the best versions of ourselves. 2) How and when did you come to decide "failing" is bad (or who told you)? Many failed experiments lead to life and game changing innovation! It's just one piece of the puzzle. 3) Remember that if you care enough to be this hurt, that is something special. Separate the deed from the doer (the failure (deed) from who you are (doer)) We all fail, we all make mistakes we all screw up.... that does not make you a failure!
