The "fake self-improvement" framing cuts through a lot of noise.

Most of us call it a discipline problem and move on, naming it as a skills gap is a different diagnosis entirely.

Btw just curious, what made you finally see it as a pattern rather than just a bad streak?

Hmm, interesting question..

I really enjoy finding regularities, patterns in thigns, this is how my brain is routed 😅 So over time (once I was past several bigger or smaller failures) I naturally started looking for a way to categorize these failures.

This is such an amazing way to deal with it… I’m surely gonna keep that in mind.

Just keep in mind that there aren't really random accidents and coincidences, most things have a reason, a root, just like our failures. You rarely fail because of a meaningless coincidence, so it's always possible to learn from them.

Oh definitely, we either win or learn… There’s nothing like failure..
