Do you embrace failure? Have failing at something propelled you for something better?

Yes, at my lowest I seem to be the most open to change. I'm very stubborn in everything in my life and sometimes life has to hit me across the face in order for me to see where I'm actually failing

I actually agree with this I feel the same! Some ppl really need to lose it (ideally not lose it all) to get it back and better.

I do most definitely but I’m trying to build the boldness/courage to not be afraid of failure which hinders me from starting some task that I ultimately want to be successful at.

I feel that

If I'm being honest, no. Failing sucks. But it's part of life and yes, it does ultimately turn out for the best sometimes. But I'm not one to "embrace" failure.

That’s honest

Accepting failure is essential, but believing that failure teaches you more than success is toxic and completely inaccurate. If you succeeded once, you did something well and learned what you should do next time. If you fail, you've merely learned what you shouldn't do. Those are not equal, in fact, they are completely opposite. Success will teach you more, and I have the impression that all of the posts about accepting failure and learning through failure are only here to make people feel better.
