In life, you must accept when you have failed a test.
I find I am someone who dwells on making mistakes, especially when I knew better and was just being lazy or wasn't mentally strong enough.
I hate having to have that real conversation with myself.
The "you know exactly why you are here and what you did to get here" conversation is a hard one to have, but it is so necessary.
You see, without that hard conversation, there is no accountability, no reason to fix it, and no improvement.
Yes, at times I am probably too hard on myself, but I know I am getting better, and that is what I truly care about. I want to get better, and the only way I can is through self-evaluation and re-execution.
Sometimes that means looking in the mirror, saying "yep, you messed up," accepting the consequences, and dealing with it.
That is the key factor though, YOU MUST DEAL WITH IT.
If you skip over the consequences, you will not learn, you will not get better, and I guarantee you will never hit that goal you want.
So, what is worse? Having a hard conversation with yourself and facing the repercussions, or never getting to have all the things you want for yourself?
You choose.
