Gifted With Failure

Some things in life are not always easy to understand. Sometimes a problem can occur without any rhyme or reason. Though what if that problem was a blessing in disguise?

Making a predictable example from my own experience in the world of technology, this is just one way it can manifest. For as long as I can remember I’ve had diabolically bad luck with all manner of technology, from remote controllers to refrigerators. It seemed every time I got or tried a new device, I would either end up needing an even newer version of it or attempt to fix it with what few tools I had. As you could imagine this ended up frustrating me to no end. It was only after I found myself assembling my own computer to avoid someone else making a mistake while putting it together that I realized all of the problems I experienced were not “just“ problems, they were chances to learn.

If there is something that irks you in a similar way, perhaps it can be an amazing chance to temper yourself. As long as you keep your nose to the grinder and see it through to the end you can end up building skills that will serve you long in to your life. It’s easy to throw your worries to the wind and forget about your problems entirely, but nothing worthwhile is ever easy.

Thanks for reading and I hope you learned something from my own lesson in life.
