Develop Realistic Thoughts About Failure
When you find yourself thinking that you’re a hopeless cause or that there’s no use in trying again, reframe your thoughts . Remind yourself of more realistic thoughts about failure such as:
- Failure is a sign that I’m challenging myself to do something difficult.
- I can handle failure.
- I can learn from my failures.
You may need to repeat a phrase or affirmation to ward off negative thoughts or to reinforce to yourself that you can bounce back.
