Today I was a candidate for city council special election to replace a resignation. The caucus system only allows precinct committee persons to vote for the replacement. In my small town, the total number was one. I guess, fortunately, I only lost by one vote. On the other hand, I didn't garner any support. So as I sit and reflect on why this has happened, I dug out the following. I guess I need to be reminded of this.
Steps to Failing Forward
1. Realize there is one major difference between average people and achieving people.
2. Learn a new definition of failure.
3. Remove the “you” from failure.
4. Take action and reduce your fear.
5. Change your response to failure by accepting responsibility.
6. Don’t let the failure from outside get inside you.
7. Say goodbye to yesterday.
8. Change yourself, and your world changes.
9. Get over yourself and start giving yourself.
10. Find the benefit in every bad experience.
11. If at first you do succeed, try something harder.
12. Learn from a bad experience and make it a good experience.
13. Work on the weakness that weakens you.
14. Understand there’s not much difference between failure and success.
15. Get up, get over it, get going.
