I am contemplating rethinking the idea of failure. I want to have a less toxic relationship with the term; but, I don’t want to celebrate the term and make it more than it is.

I think of a failure as a “swing and a miss” — to use a baseball concept.

After you swing and miss, you re-orientate yourself, learn, and swing again.

I think of failure like I think of baseball… and there’s no crying in baseball.
