"Celebrate failure"
what a crazy phrase...!
u may wonder "Can any1 celebrate his failure?!
surely the answer is not "Yes he can"...the answer is "YES HE SHOULD"...!!
surely the answer is not "Yes he can"...the answer is "YES HE SHOULD"...!!
am i getting crazier...?!
mayb ...but that's what i've learnt from "The Robinsons"....!!
Does this ring any bells..?!..
i guess it does, in case u r a cartoon fan like me :D
it's "Meet The Robinsons" movie by Disney where u can c the ultimate positive attitude ever..!!
excuse me if i'm getting that much into cartoon ,..but i'm sure i'm not the only one here who looks to cartoon as a magnificent world & an amazing source of inspiration as well as entertainment..!
if u watched the movie u surely remember the scene when Lewis failed & began to apologize when the whole family cheered & celebrated his failure..!
if u didnt watch it ,..u can read the quoted part at the end*,..but make sure to watch it later :)
i watched "Meet The Robinsons" more than once ,..but it was just the last time when this phrase began to echo in my mind continuously:
"Celebrate Failure"
"Celebrate Failure"
"Celebrate Failure"
i began to think of the kind of failure which deserves celebration,.. & i called it the "Smart Failure"...!
it's the failure that comes after planning the right way & doing the best ...!
it's the non repeated failure that teaches u sth new & help u know what works & what doesnt...!!
this kind of failure...the "Smart Failure" gives u the right to celebrate...!!
so whenever u face a "Smart Failure" moment,...stop & celebrate coz here u make sure u r not dead yet,...u r still here trying,..u still have the inner passion to go forward ...!!

“Okay, that should do it!” Lewis laid down the screwdriver and examined the PB and J invention.
“Okay, that should do it!” Lewis laid down the screwdriver and examined the PB and J invention.
“It’s so exciting … Let her rip, Lewis!” Billie exclaimed, looking excited.
“Quickly,” Art urged. “Uncle Joe can’t hold on much longer!” A red faced Uncle Joe was rocking in his seat, sobbing and sucking his thumb.
“Everybody ready?”
“Go, Carl!” Lewis handed the machine to Carl. Everybody cheered as he activated the invention; it whirred promisingly, then jammed again. “Oh no,” Lewis breathed, sounding apprehensive. Peanut butter and jelly exploded out of the gun, landing on everyone. “Oh no,” Lewis moaned again, burying his face in his hands. “I – I didn’t know, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry!”
“You failed!” cried Bud happily.
“And it was awesome!” Gaston applauded Lewis.
“Exceptional,” Art added.
“Outstanding!” cheered Laszlo.
“Uh … I’ve seen better!” Petunia shrieked, always with a positive attitude.
“From failing, you learn,” Billie told Lewis, shrugging. “From success, not so much!”
