Why do I always fail even when I try my hardest?

Sometimes trying our hardest isn't what is needed. Sometime preparing our hardest is what we have to do. Whether that is studying, planning, training, etc. If we try our hardest but haven't given any thought to what we need to prepare, it might not matter. Likewise, goal setting is similarly important. Effort without focus isn't a recipe for success. You need to have both parts of the equation. I hope that doesn't come off as negative, and I hope it makes sense.
I think a good analogy could be you might be the hardest working and best baseball pitcher, but if it is so foggy that you can't see the catcher, you probably won't throw a strike.

Because that's simply the way life works. It doesn't mean that you're a failure, or that you haven't tried hard enough. Sometimes it just doesn't work out, and there's nothing we can do about it.
There are many, many things in life we can't control, and this is one of them. We can't bend reality to accept us, we have to work with what we have. And that means learning to let go of the things that we can't have, no matter how hard we've worked for it.
If you can reach your goal, have the courage to do it. But if you know you can't, have the courage to let go

Well this is a common issue which many people have. The issue is the art of working smarter rather than harder so sometimes you may fail despite trying your very hardest maybe because you didn't work smart instead of hard. But still I wouldn't sweat it too much sometimes results don't come out how you expected them to come out which is okay. If that's the case despite working smart rather than just hard I would just give myself credit just for trying your best and doing what you could do which is your input rather than your output.

It sometimes feels like I fail when I try my best, but I might not be just not using positive thoughts. I can think about the positive things I have done, where I excel in other areas, and how I can change my thinking. So I can say, maybe I didn't do as well as I wanted to on that test, but I am learning more about the topics and think critically. I may have done poorly on that test, but I am still accomplishing my homework and doing well in the class. Maybe I can meet with my teacher to find a better way to study or discuss the areas I may not be well advanced in.

A lack of persistence is a great obstacle to success. There are so many incredibly talented and gifted people who fail time and time again because they rely too much on their talents. They are not willing to persist until they've completely mastered what they're doing. Instead, they quit when the going gets tough.. Because people tend to fail than succeed. So if your success rate is 10%, which means every 100 things you do , you succeed 10 things. However, if you do TOO FEW, like you only try 5 things, then chances are you cant gain any success. So you always find failure , it's just becasue your doing are not enough in number

Sometimes failing is a good thing. You learn from your mistakes and do better next time. There are high bars for a reason. When you think you can't do something, try to tell yourself that you can do it or take a break. Take a walk outside, drink some water, do something that makes you feel happy. It's good to try your hardest on things, but you get tired and worn out after a while. You can also reach out to your peers and ask them for help. Getting support from others can boost your confidence and push yourself to your highest limits. 💖

We are human and sometimes we overthink or think on the negative results. Life comes with mistakes and that is on us to choose our path and better ourselves. You can't put yourself down for a negative results. Stuff happens and that is a part of life. You will be amazing in every way. Continue to work hard and build your path with your future. I believe in you! You'll do great things in life and we may have some times where we fail or feel like we are not doing enough, But we are taking life step by step.

You never fail. We either win or learn. Each experience (bad or good) is helping us know ourself better. This cannot be regarded as failure. Therefore, keep trying because you’re learning a new thing Everytime you try. No matter what the results are, keep trying and be open to experience. This will help you gain a better understanding of who you are and one day, you will realize how much this entire process of trying and learning has helped you become a better version of who you were earlier. It will make you stronger and wiser. So never be afraid to try again.

I believe people fail even when they try their hardest because they are afraid.Fear can cause you to be defeated. One way to overcome come this is believing in your self and conquering your fears. Do positive self talks and build your confidence.set Goals also some hurting your own feelings be consistent, vulnerable and positivity remember everyone fails sometimes. Learn from your experiences Success is scary but keep the faith and keep showing up.Everyday you will get a new opportunity to show up first for your self then for others.My wish for you is that you will take every chance you are given no matter how small .

Because in life failure leads us to the success. We learn more through the failures than we do through successful first attempts. Mistakes never define who you are it's what you do after those failures and mistakes that define who you are. Struggles are part life and no matter what happens giving up is never the right answer. Striving to do better is the only way to continue to truly learn from the mistakes that were made. Forgiveness is the key to letting go of the failure that was made. Forgiveness for your mistakes and giving yourself power to trust yourself again.
