Failing is Good. "Being a Failure" is a Racket

If you consider yourself to be a failure, you're going to become more of a failure.  That's just the law of attraction at work.  If you want to be successful, you must be kind of sort of all about yourself.  You've gotta love yourself, love your life, be about it.  Then you'll attract a great life.

I've highly valued humility, but it has cost me.  I now find myself stuck for years in the ACT racket of "being a failure".  But it's a racket.  Let me explain.

When you are a failure, you are freed from the responsibility of failing.  Normally, when you fail you've gotta learn and step up.  If you're failing at swimming in the Ocean, you're going to die if you don't do something.  In life, if you accept failure without stepping up, you will die inside (but hey, at least you'll "escape" the responsibility of failing!)

I think of myself as a failure to avoid the responsibility of stepping up my game, and I do so at the cost of my vitality and my future.
