Remember: it's not about failure, but about how you pick yourself up and continue moving forward while learning from your experience.
Think of inventors who experienced many failures until that light bulb moment (pun intended!).
Think of Abe Lincoln and all his challenges, yet pressed on to run for presidency and is still a mint image...A tzaddik falls seven times and rises...

Observanteen! QUIT THAT!!
Seriously, Yes, IMHO! most people must have the times they are going to feel frustrated at themselves and feel like a failure. G-d made us people and therefore we are going to make mistakes and yes, sometimes fail to. But! That does not make us into failures!! We win some and we lose some, but the main thing is that we keep going FORWARD!
It's not a prob. to rant as long as you deal with the feeling in the right way.
And btw, i don't know if the reason is a legitimate one this time, but i do think that it is a positive thing to be frustrated and disappointed at oneself in areas that you can change. But that doesn't sound the situation here!
i'm sorry you're feeling like this and PLS feel better quick!!!!! Hang in there - keep going, you're doing great!Posted 1 year ago # -
ayc thanks for reminding me of Sheva Yipol Tzadik V'Kam.
One of my favorite sayings. I failed a huge nisayon right after YK but bH I realized I went through it to make me a better person. I still want to just cry all day because of my mistake, even though it is all worked out but still..
observanteen, you are not alone. Everyone goes through it unfortunately...Posted 1 year ago # -
Thanks everyone! That's so nice. I didn't think anyone would reply.
AYC, thanks...How do you know I'm a tzaddekes?;P

Chosson. If you're feeling a bit down, it's a good a time as any to have a bonding moment where you tell him about your feelings, and he says "oy" and looks sad.
(And then he tries to fix the problem instead of just commiserating, and then you get mad at him for not understanding, but you don't tell him why you're mad because he should figure it out on his own, etc.)Posted 1 year ago # -
Oh. Mmmm...think about that. I don't want him to think (okay know) that I'm freaking out over everything. But your description is hysterical! Thanks for the laugh!:)

Because I was the one who failed, wasn't I? As far as I'm concerned, things don't just happen by itself! But thanks for trying to comfort me... That was nice!:)

observanteen asks;
Do you guys ever get frustrated with yourself?With myself? No! With everyone else, YES!
j/k of course. Just take a deep breath,breath in<-----happiness and hope
breath out----->all the frustration and negativity.
smile... :-)Then go treat yourself to an ice cream.
If you're fleishig you still have wonderful pareve options B"H in most jewish neighborhoods across the world.Why you ask? Cuz ice cream is important, like a big smile!
and together they are unstoppable!!!Pareve doesn't compare? No, but it's just a pre ice cream treat.
When you get pareve you get to go again. More ice cream!If you live in B.P. and frequent "Zisseh Leik"
"Sweet lick" in yiddish (j/k) you might run into me often.I'm that frustrated! :)
I don't do sprinkles, cuz i'm a besereh mentch!
which means I don't care to wait in long lines with sugar addicted
teenage girls, or have toddlers leave me a table cleaned with chocolate ice cream instead of fantastic.Posted 1 year ago # -
there's a difference between failing and being a failure. a successful person may fail once in a while, a failure fails more often than not. which one suits you better IYO? I already gave mine.
