I Failed!

I failed at something today.
I don’t much like failing. And to be honest I’m pretty ungraceful when I do.
I’m not yet even in that place where I can identify the good bit that came out of it….. 

but…… 

As I have failed before, I know that I will live. As I have failed before, I know I will have learned something. And as I have failed before, I also know that once the bruise to my ego is less tender, I will be forced into a valuable reassessment. 
I am being nudged to attend to an aspect of my professional development that will inevitably benefit me in ways I cannot even imagine yet!
And for now, I shall eat chocolate. I shall be kind to myself and tend to my wounded ego. Perhaps I shall take a little pride in the fact that I tried. This cultivates resilience. & That was quite terrifying enough for one day!
