Success and Failures

September 6, 2015

In Chris Guillebeau's book The Happiness of Pursuit he describes a fact, with successful outcomes people tend to think whatever you achieved was brave, courageous, smart because it was completed. The other part to that is with failed outcomes people default to how that attempt was dumb, naive and anything else negative. I actually believe failed attempts may be more common than successful ones. No one wants to realize what you learned from the failure or what you gained. From experience I was practicing getting the lighting right in the day time, where the sun is strong, and in all my pictures I couldn't achieve the sun not overruling my shot or making everything around it dark. By myself failing I was able to get some pretty cool pictures and rather than being upset, I simply learned.
