Great post. I already shared your view about failure, but I hadn't considered that when people give you a hard time for your failures, it’s probably because they are afraid of failure themselves. That sounds obvious in hindsight, but it is something I couldn't quite put into words before.
As a sidenote, that tortilla soup recipe sounds delicious. Would you consider sharing it here?
Thanks for this post! Loved the video game references! It's also interesting to see your daily life example (cooking). Building tolerance to failure in our daily lives is a step towards other more high-stakes areas!
Off-topic, but when you mentioned directional impairment, I remembered that you wrote you had problems remembering faces and names. Have you ever read about prosopagnosia? It could be due to it.
Once we no longer see failure as an experience to be avoided, the sky is the limit.
Exactly! Hence the modern adage "Fail Faster".

Very useful overall advice, thanks for taking the time to share. I certainly plan to use it as relevant/as best as I can.
This is wonderful Athena. I know of a fellow who says: There are two ways to do something; the right way and again.
Who would have thought soup could be currency, lol . So win win.
That was really very good .
