I have heard that old adage, but you know what .. I find I learn more about bitterness from failure than the positives. I know we must fail to be humble and to not take things for granted. I just don't like it at all. There has to be a better way to learn and be humble and grateful for what we do have and can accomplish, then failure.
It depends on the challenge for me and who is issuing it. I can always leave challenges and not be phased. It has to have some greater meaning for me, you know.

They do say though, that there is more to be learnt from failure than success...

Seriously though, I do like to push myself as far as I can go... And I can never say no to a challenge!

I do leave some challenges, especially when I'm going through a lull in writing, or creativity...
