Good morning, fam. Let’s talk about failure.
Failure is not the end of the world. Anyone who tells you differently is a liar. And you can tell them your mom said so.
Ahem.
Seriously though, failure is actually part of the process of life. Failure is essential to your growth. No one walks into a new thing and starts out perfect. And no one should ever expect that, either.
Anyone who makes you feel like shit for not being perfect—which is another lie society likes to perpetrate—is an asshole. Not only that, they are projecting their own negative hard-wiring to make you feel less than.
We’re not here for that.
You are amazing.
You are so wonderful.
You are smart and deserving of respect.
And if you’re reading this, you’re part of this family, and my world is better with you in it.
So ignore the haters. Listen to me.
We have better shit to do than trudging through other people’s drama.
You’ve got this.
Love you,
Your Mom
