That thought has stayed with me for a while — not because failure is something to celebrate in itself, but because trying takes courage. And courage is often where growth begins. 💛
Failure has been a familiar part of my journey. Not in a dramatic way, but in the everyday sense of giving things a proper go and sometimes realising… this isn’t it.
I’ve attempted a lot over the years.
Some things with excitement.
Some with determination.
Some with plans that felt solid — until they weren’t.
And yes, I’ve failed. Sometimes loudly. Sometimes quietly. Sometimes after investing more time and money than I care to admit.
But what I’ve learned is this: failure isn’t always a sign you’ve gone wrong. Often, it’s simply proof that you were brave enough to try. 🌱
Ideas seem to live permanently in my head. They arrive during the day, late at night, and sometimes in my sleep. There have been plenty of nights where I’ve woken up just to scribble something down so I don’t lose it. Other times I half-write notes on my phone, hoping they’ll make sense in the morning.
Some do. Some don’t.
But the excitement of possibility is always there. ✨
Out of all the things I’ve explored, I never expected to find so much joy in printing, embroidery, and vinyl graphics. Yet here I am — genuinely enjoying the process of learning and creating.
I think part of that joy comes from how it connects to something that already matters deeply to me. It enhances a service we care about. It adds value to a business that carries history, memories, and meaning — a legacy my Grandad began and one I feel proud to continue. 🤍
Learning these skills hasn’t been quick or effortless. There were times I questioned whether I’d wasted precious time or resources chasing something uncertain. But looking back now, I see those moments differently.
They weren’t wasted.
They were lessons in patience, persistence, and growth. 🌿
Not everything we try will be the right fit — and that’s okay. Our paths aren’t straight lines. Goals shift. Priorities evolve. And sometimes the detours are exactly what guide us to the things that feel right.
Growth isn’t about getting it perfect.
It’s about moving with intention and being willing to learn as you go.
So if you’ve tried something and it didn’t work — congratulations. You stepped outside your comfort zone. You learned something about yourself. And that matters. 💫
If there’s something you’ve been thinking about doing — something that sparks your curiosity or quietly sets your soul on fire — maybe this is your nudge to start. Not perfectly. Not fearlessly. Just honestly.
Because trying is how we discover what’s possible.
And sometimes, failure is simply the first step toward finding what truly fits.
So if there’s something you’ve been wishing for, thinking about, or quietly hoping to do…
maybe this is your sign to take that first step.
It doesn’t have to be perfect — it just has to begin. ❤️
Thank you, Love you, Bye ✨
