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

I'm getting that you feel that you always fail even when you try your hardest. In my experience, there is no set bar for success or failure, so it's easy to interpret your progress as either. Hopefully that makes sense! If not, let me elaborate. One time I was so depressed and angry at myself for failing multiple of my classes. I retook the classes over the summer and passed them, but just barely. I interpreted this as a failure. However, it could also be interpreted as a success because I did manage to pass them, even if my GPA went down as a result. Your perspective is super valuable! It's possible to look at the same thing from a multitude of perspectives.

Failing does not have to be a negative thing. I feel that many people find it hard to find the understanding of failing and succeeding. Trying your hardest and not giving up on things is what truly matters. Sometimes, things can take several tries and a lot of effort. You should be very proud for going after things that take several attempts or a lot of work, because it takes real drive and determination to do so. Just keep pushing hard and don't be afraid to try new methods and continue being flexible and optimistic during this process. I hope you get to your end goal!

Sometimes your hardest just isn't enough, but it doesn't mean it will never be. You just have to strive and try to improve, and eventually it you will succeed.

Sometimes the small battles aren't meant to be won. Failure is a natural part of life that makes the successes of life so much sweeter when you achieve them. Life does get better and you learn how to take the failure with a grain of salt and keep working toward your goal.

You "fail" because that's what you tell yourself. Honestly, you only fail when you don't try! You are far from being a failure, even if things don't work out the way you want them to - because you're still willing to try so hard. Right? Go get that confidence back, find some positivity & success in what you've given so far, and keep going!

Your hardest may not be enough to not fail but it is enough to give yourself credit for. when you try your hardest congratulate yourself.

Life throws us many curve balls but never gives us anything we can't handle. Its not about how many times you fail, its about how many times you choose not to give up.
