Some folks say that failure is inevitable. You can't go your whole life only succeeding. That's not life. You would have no opportunity to grow if you were immediately good at everything you tried. Imagine that, though, if you won a superpower in a would-you-rather-type scenario and were magically good at everything. What would you try first? I might immediately try to sing. In regular life, I can't carry a tune in the slightest. But if I was magically good at everything, I would sign up for karaoke immediately and blow everyone out of the water with "I Will Always Love You." Wouldn't that be fun? Or perhaps I would fly a plane. The rush would probably be unbeatable if I was able to land a plane on the first try.

But that's not the world we live in. We live in a world where we fail all the time. These images are proof.
