Today I reflect on a series of failures that altered the course of my life. It was a time in my life where I felt incredibly stuck and overwhelmed with self doubt and fear, but I had to get honest with myself about what I truly wanted in life, even if it wasn't easy. Looking back, I see my failures as key experiences that pushed me forward to where I was meant to be.

Instead of avoiding failure, we can embrace failures as part of our journeys. Failures help steer us in the right direction.
