What is failure to you?
A setback, a reality check or another chip on your ego? What makes you go on/forward/towards the goal? Is it wounded pride, demanding the soothing balm of further victories or is the inner belief that life never gives you challenges you personally can not surpass?
For me, for a long time, I thought it was the latter. But nowadays, I find many of my decisions to be if not guided, then certainly tailored by pride. Or, if I to say more truthfully - fear. Fear of not achieving, being left behind, not becoming...blah, blah, blah of that inner monologue that always exists in the minds on current overachieving generation google.
So, how about it? What really drives you toward your (social!) goals? There, deep, deep inside, beyond social niceties..as we all know - winner take all.


nothing and then some
