I want to try something new with the pinned cast in /success: encouraging more long form discussion. Read the question below and answer thoughtfully. Let’s spark some real conversations here! There has been a lot of FUD recently about past failure and what that means for future success. With this in mind—what is the most important failure you’ve experienced in life and how did it shape the person you are today? For me, it was losing everything to drug addiction and the criminal justice system. My career, my health, my youth. But through that struggle, I learned to be a much stronger person—much more capable to take on the challenges of life. I wouldn’t change anything as all of it helped shape the person I am today. What about you?

It may seem small compared to your experience, but I messed around in college and ended up failing three times. In the Japanese educational system and job market, that signifies a major failure. At that time, I didn’t think too deeply about it, but when I graduated, I felt deep regret. I felt like I was left behind by my peers and that my life was over. After entering society, I worked hard to catch up, and when I was able to join my current company, I realized it wasn’t such a big failure after all. I believe it turned out better than if I had graduated without a care.

Thank you, Maretus. I currently work for an automotive-related manufacturer, which is a subsidiary of a company that makes cars often seen in America.
