[quote=Anonymous]You are ok. Probably more than ok.

I have failed sooooo many times.

I studied acting undergrad, wanted to be a professional actress. Failed. Not for lack of talent and training, but because I was a personal mess. Worked as a model. Failed. Got dumped by my agency for being stupid (declined a fur show because I didn't "believe in" that, and they don't care about your beliefs lol). Went to law school, did really well, got a great job, did really well, found it too tiring and quit after 7 years. So essentially ... Failed. Went to a think tank. Couldn't handle the stress.  Hated it. So Failed there. Left to go to grad school. Fancied myself a talented writer. Got my MFA ten years ago. No book. Not yet. Probably not ever. Failed again.

Fail, fail, fail, fail, fail...

But at the same time it has somehow worked out. Life is failure. If you aren't failing, you aren't doing anything of value. What did Becket say?  "Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better." [/quote]
