CONSCIOUS FAILURE
Grant Giles
High Performance Triathlon Coach. Mental Skills Coach. Sansego Triathlon Performance Coach.
If you are going to fail or fall, then fail and fall consciously. Don’t allow it to go through to the keeper by disassociating from the pain you are feeling.
Mistakes and failure are a structure designed to assist us to grow, evolve and expand. If you disassociate, you shrink and contract.
Growth is a decision to accept the unacceptable and go beyond it.
That decision is built on the fertile ground of your own acceptance, your willingness to get in there and feel what you feel, and to learn from it.
Remember the lesson, not the disappointment.
Experience is a profound teacher. She gives no quarter, expects nothing from you, and gives you nothing unless you give it to yourself.
That’s the lesson. You are 100% responsible for your own teaching and it’s up to you to truly listen, because the lesson is totally unique to each one of us.
When we cave in on ourselves for our failures, we also cave in on our own teaching.
If you could erase all the mistakes of the past, you would be erasing all the wisdom you contain at that moment.
Conscious failure is made of self acceptance and ultimately love .
When we turn away from ourselves, we are turning away from our own love and, ultimately, our capacity to give it.
Success is made of love. The longer we resist that truth, the longer it takes to get to the root of wisdom.
Make your failure conscious and it’s no longer failure, you transmute the contracted word failure into the expanded word wisdom.
