Celebrating Failure (assignment 26A)

The most recent failure I had was last night in the Math test I had. I had a presentation and a test yesterday and because I am a stronger test taker than presenter, I did not use my time wisely and barely got the chance to study for the math test. Therefore, I did very poorly on the test and now I have to work very hard to get the grade I need in that class, all based off of the final exam. From this experience, I definitely learned a few things. For one, I learned that I need to manage my time much better and learn to study and plan things days in advance. Also, I learned that I need to set a better schedule when I have many things going on at the same time so that I can prepare equally for all the things I have coming. 

Failure is something that I am very familiar with it and I have my own way of dealing with it. At first, it always sucks and its always embarrassing to do something wrong and to know that I am performing under my potential. However, after listening to many mentors and wiser people in my life, I have learned that they all learned the most in their life, in times of failure. They all agree that when someone fails, it is ingrained in your head so much more than when you do well on something, therefore, you are much more likely to never make that mistake again. Also, you learn a lot about yourself and how you act under pressure, which is always great to know. Overall, failure is a very important part of life, regardless of how much it sucks.
