Futurist Jim Carroll<p>Daily Inspiration: "Take pride in your losses because they teach you about your wins!" - Futurist Jim Carroll</p><p>People hide from their failure.</p><p>They shouldn't.</p><p>Because often, it's the only way to get to success.</p><p>Your wins are informed by your losses. Your success is defined by your failure. Moving forward always comes after a few steps back. Achieving your goals always comes after your missteps in trying to achieve them. </p><p>You'll always do worse before you do better.</p><p>This attitude has always informed everything I do. When I learned to ski late in life, success only came after some spectacularly bad moments. Learning to golf involved regularly going into the water before I managed to get over it fairly consistently. Learning Linux on my own involved blowing up a lot of well-functioning computer systems until I learned how not to.</p><p>You might have seen in the last few weeks a few notes apologizing in case I sent a few duplicates of my Daily Inspiration. This is because I was amid a complex voyage to move all of my servers - jimcarroll.com, my mailing list system at insight.jimcarroll.com, my other inspiration site at daily.jimcarroll.com, as well as a bunch of family and friends sites - onto a new server infrastructure that would cut my monthly costs in half. It was a complex project, and seemed that for every step forward, I was taking three back.</p><p>Until I wasn't, and success was to be found.</p><p>There's a saying that is often shared - 'fail early, fail fast, fail often!'<br>There couldn't be a better mindset for moving yourself into tomorrow!<br><a href="https://futurist.info/tags/FailureToSuccess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FailureToSuccess</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Learning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Learning</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Growth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Growth</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Resilience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Resilience</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Persistence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Persistence</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Wins" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wins</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/LetGo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LetGo</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/Mindset" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mindset</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/EmbraceFailure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EmbraceFailure</span></a> <a href="https://futurist.info/tags/progress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>progress</span></a> </p><p>Original post: <a href="https://jimcarroll.com/2024/10/daily-inspiration-personal-growth-take-pride-in-your-losses-because-they-teach-you-about-your-wins/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">jimcarroll.com/2024/10/daily-i</span><span class="invisible">nspiration-personal-growth-take-pride-in-your-losses-because-they-teach-you-about-your-wins/</span></a></p>
