Failure Exists for Learning

When we muster the courage to embrace new challenges and pursue our excitement, it's only natural that we sometimes face failure.
I, too, often find myself hesitant to step out of my comfort zone, fearing failure.
But I've noticed that even when I stay positive and keep visualizing good things, there's a sense of stagnation that creeps in.
We all know that those who continually challenge themselves are the ones who succeed. But it's not always easy to shake off the inertia.
However, if I let concerns about success or failure prevent me from moving forward, it contradicts my belief in living in the "here and now.", I realized. Driven by this realization, I finally embarked on something new – this salon is the result.
It was an unknown territory for me, with an uncertain future. But I opened it anyway, fueled by my passion.
And what happened? I received help from various sources. Failure is inevitable, but it's also a learning opportunity. We live to learn.
(But of course, I'd rather not repeat the same mistakes. Otherwise, they keep coming back until we truly learn from them.)
If we view everything that happens as necessary, then everything becomes, "The best and greatest thing is happening!" Even what seems like failure at first, isn't failure at all.
This applies to daily life as well.
In times of chaos, instead of getting frustrated and shouting, "Why is this happening?" try exclaiming, "Ah, the best thing is happening!" I practice this myself (laugh).
And if a sense of unease lingers, I do deep breathing and tapping ! (that's what works for me).
Believing that I create my reality with my frequency, I've come to realize, at this age, that everything in the flow of time makes sense. That's life.
