How do you deal with your successes and failures?  I’ve met some people who are just as afraid of being successful (maybe more so) than they are of failing.  Why do these two things give us so much grief?

We use them in a non-productive manner.  We don’t use them for what they really are:

• signposts
• lessons

Your successes and failures are simply feedback from your experiences.  Experiences are what drive us through our day.  If you see them simply as feedback – I like what happened I’ll do it again…I don’t like what happened I’ll tweak or stop that activity and keep going you’ll be amazed at the kind of life you lead.

And it is all about the journey, Right?  It is all about the kind of life you lead.

If you pay attention to your experiences they will also alert you when similar circumstances happen again.  Only this time you’ll be prepared to deal with things differently.

Labels often stop us in our tracks.  They are so final.  Let go of success and failure as a label.  They are simply an experience.  Learn from them and change your behavior accordingly.

Watch your life swing wide open to the wonders of the world!
