One of my favourite quotes is “You only fail if you don’t try”.
She is a redhead, isn’t she! So cute! 🙂

When I watch Clara I just feel happy that she’s trying something new, and I’m sure other people around us are rooting for us to succeed more than they’re analyzing why we’re falling short.

How nice that must be to think that everything is new and exciting…Like walking. I do that every day and never give it any wonder. I don’t have children, but this was just the push I needed during a frustrating week. Even if I get a bit off track, I am making progress!

I love the thought behind this message – “failing” without the usual negative connotation we associate with that word. I’m sure that kind of attitude is much easier to maintain if you have no concept of embarrassment, but even just being able to put a positive spin on not succeeding could have such a helpful difference, I think.
