    I'm not sure if it's helpful to you, but I learned to laugh at my own failures and it made failing a lot less miserable.

    When I was learning Japanese I would pick out my own worst mistakes and show my friends and tutors and have a good laugh.

    I know it's not for everyone, and you should find your own way to make failure better, but reframing failure as a hilarious fuck up helped me cope.

      I absolutely do laugh at my failures, that's definitely good advice imo. I've just as of yet not found a way to know for sure when I'm failing and when I'm not which is why I find it hard to accept that I'm doing well if I am
