26A- Celebrating Failure


1.    So, let’s start off by saying failing sucks! I truly failed myself last semester. I took the dreaded FIN 3403 with Professor Banko for the second time and dropped it for a second time. I’ve never felt so completely defeated before in my life. Now I’m looking at the three- peat fee. Yey me! Nothing has compared to this feeling this semester. That is why I chose this dark period in my life. 

2.    I’ve learned not to let my pride get in the way. I dropped the class originally because there was no way I was going to receive a D in the class, so I dropped it. The second time I took the class I did a little worse and didn’t follow the professor’s directions to a T. So, I figured what’s the point? I just should have accepted it the first time and kept it moving.

3.    Failure was a very hard pill to swallow. I can truly say I’ve never felt so dejected in my life. I wanted to give up, but I’m so close to the end. I just need to think positively and dedicate all of my time outside of work to make this third time a charm. This class has helped me understand failure is a part of life and helps you grow. Until this point, I had never experience failure that drains you mentally and emotionally. Not sure how risky I will be in the future.
