Blame it on the circumstances
There are many reasons which can explain and possibly justify our current demise, in this article I’ll go through them and feel free to make use of them as an excuse the next time someone asks you why you failed. These are all legitimate reasons to justify failure, despite our best wishes and intentions we often fail as a result of these circumstances. Life is a complex journey filled with twists and turns, ups and downs which eventually lead us to either success or failure. While it’s tempting to attribute all setbacks to fate, a closer examination reveals a multitude of factors which contribute to our struggles.

Why good ideas fail
People often look for these “great ideas” and put in all their energy into it because they trust the greatness of the ideas is all it takes. I won’t refute or endorse that, however in this article I want to share with you some reasons why even great or good ideas can fail, not in an attempt to discourage you but rather to create some awareness in your mind so you can be prepared.

The Power of Collaboration
From my experience I have had a lot of challenges when it comes to collaborating with others, it has always been an uphill battle working with others when it comes to putting ideas together to achieve a goal, not necessarily because I am bad at collaboration but mostly for the reasons listed below. Despite this, I understand clearly the power of working together, and I know there is very little anyone of us can do alone. No matter how smart, strong, resilient, powerful you are there is always going to be a limit to how far you can go alone but when we all work together towards a common goal, there is no limit to how far we can go.

Why won’t you just ask
Very often, I find myself asking, “How many times are we going to make the same mistakes?” This is because I come across people who make the same mistakes I did when I was their age. It feels off to see them do those mistakes, for some they don’t have the courage to ask for help or advice, while for others who do ask they are often resistant to this advice and walk straight into those mistakes. Whether it is poor financial management, bad business strategies or simply bad communication skills, people consistently make the same mistakes over and over again, and we find ourselves craving that “I Told you so moment” more than anything else.

You need power to change things
In one way or the other, I am sure there are things you might want to change about the world, your life or probably just your current circumstances. Maybe you’ll like to earn more, or you’ll prefer the government did their Jobs a little better, or even still, you might like a nicer world. There is no shortage of things we would like to see change in the world, however so slightly.

The reason we change
When you reach a certain age, you are going to notice people change around you. Whether it's friends who don’t speak to you anymore, or it's relatives who only care about what you can give them. It might even be yourself without realizing, you will change from the person you once were and some people might tell you that.

How dare you to be different?
We live in a world of conformity, where there are different rules and regulations which govern how people are going to act and be. This conformity is basically in every single aspect of our lives, from your home, to your school, right through your job and even in your circle of friends. In all these places you are going to notice that there are rules which you need to abide by, for example at home even though you have a lot of freedom, there are still things you just can’t do. In the world as well, there is conformity enforced by the government and even society in general.

Why my projects keep failing
Another failed project, recorded again. The same feeling of bitter-sweet, bitter because I wasn’t able to go through my goals and I probably just wasted months of my life on something I truly believed would create an impact. Sweet because I know where the mistake was and so now I can come back another time stronger and better than ever before. You will be surprised at how many failed projects it takes for most people to get the right thing going it, we often underestimate what it takes to get things working very well simply because we are so focused on what works already, but that road is definitely not an easy one to navigate.

Equality is a hoax
It is interesting to see women’s fight for equality and even though I commend their efforts, I don’t think they realize how complex of a problem this is. This article isn’t about women’s fight for equality, but rather a deeper dive into equality, what it is and the reality of it all. To put it as simply as possible, modern equality means a farmer can become president or, in other words, having the same rights and opportunities. You’d think such a prestigious position as president would be reserved for the high class of people with a long-standing family background, but in modern times the concept of equality has become just this, all epitomized by what is called “the American dream”.

Simple but not easy
In life we often encounter situations that are simple but not easy. They may be easy to understand (simple) but require a significant amount of effort or skill to execute (not easy). There are various aspects of life which are like this whether it’s our personal growth, relationship or professional endeavors.
