Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
It had been a political meeting with the big media, as Vlad had to listen to other citizens talk about their heroes and complain about how they have more supervillains and damage. As a reporter, asked Vlad, the mayor of Amity Park, what he thought about it. He himself didn't talk about villain attacks or similar.
Vlad:" It's not my fault that your heroes are failures."
Yeah Vlad insulted every hero and city just with 1 sentence.
Politician angry from Metropolis:" What the hell are you talking about?"
Vlad:" How many years did your heroes fight their villains in your cities with collateral damage?"
Someone from Gotham said, " Maybe now 20 years maybe more."
Vlad:" The hero in Amity Park only took 1 year to show all his villains the right path, that they dropped being evil, and only once in a while visit to fight the hero without any damage to the city other than that place where they fight."
Vlad had built an Arena for it; it helped both Ghost and Danny fight and train.
Many of them are silent, as if they couldn't believe 1 word to say, " Impossible. Our heroes tried it for so many years."
Vlad:" If your failures did their job, you wouldn't have any villains years ago. So, yes, I don't think your heroes do their jobs."
Vlad then didn't talk anymore about this theme; he got bored of it.
And for the media and politicians, 1 online search and they saw Vlad told the truth... And they were kind of angry and confused. How comes that boy in 1 year fixed all his villain but someone like Superman or Batman wasn't able to do it for years!
Do you save things that, for one reason or another, you never ended up posting? I always love seeing scrapped WIPs / deleted scenes / etc, and was just curious!
(Absolutely no pressure to post any of it, of course!)
Honestly, I don't have many. I'm weird where I either draw something and decided it's not worth pursuing 5 minutes later and trash it, or I see it to completion regardless of how long it takes. There is no in-between for me.
The only true WIPs I have are usually DTIYS that never got finished because I missed the due dates... sorry about that >< I suppose I can post some of those here (click on to see full views since Tumblr is weird and cutting them off):
The only other thing I don't normally post are little sketches that I only send to individuals rather than the general public. Here's a few:
I love myself. I love my life. I love my journey. I love my mistakes. I love my failures. I love my passion. I love my introspection. I love my progress. I love myself in all the best ways I possibly could.
Failures are indications of what not to do, not commandments to stop trying.
Do not allow your interfering ego to turn mistakes into sabotaging affirmations about your character. The road to success is always a rough one...even for people you think are far smarter than you.
The fact that you failed at a thing does not mean you’re a failure as a person — that’s an astronomical stretch and a crushing overstatement — no It means you need some more time, some more attempts, some more knowledge, some more discipline, some more help...and that’s all.
Consider it from a far more technical and less psychological point of view, or in other words, make it less about you and more about the process.
Failure is the path to success! 😁 No great inventor got it right on the first try; there was a lot of trial and error involved. When you fail at achieving something, it forces you to take a step back and re-evaluate what you know. The best thing that you can do when you fail is to look back and see where you went wrong or what you could have done differently to change the outcome. 🤔
Learning from your failures does not mean that you need to constantly dwell on them, even if you know better now. The past is unchangeable, and, for your own health, it is best to move on from it rather than to dwell on it. 😖
Focus your energy on the things that you’re working towards! 😁 Your failures and successes have all led you up to this very moment. Don’t let a mistake from two years be the breaking point for you because you could have done better.
Take your failures and use them as stepping stones across the river of life to reach the things that you want to achieve. 🪨 Use the knowledge that you have now to build the life that you want, to achieve the goals that you have set. It is never too late to make a change in your life, so start working towards those goals! 😄 Don’t forget the past, but choose to learn from it rather than to dwell on it. 😌
Omne tempus Clodios, non omne Catones feret….Eleganter itaque ab Epicuro dictum puto: “potest nocenti contingere, ut lateat, latendi fides non potest,” aut si hoc modo melius hunc explicari posse iudicas sensum: “ideo non prodest latere peccantibus, quia latendi etiam si felicitatem habent, fiduciam non habent.” Ita est: tuta scelera esse possunt, secura esse non possunt.
- Seneca
Every generation produces a Clodius, but every one doesn’t make a Cato….So, I think that Epicurus put it well that “It’s possible for a guilty person to hide, but it’s impossible to trust the hiding.” Or, if you think it is better to convey the sense in this way: “There’s no advantage for people who screw up to hide because even if that have the good luck, there’s no promise of staying hidden.” I mean this: crimes can be safeguarded, but they can never be secure.”
A wise person once told me, I believe it was one of my former clients, that we should not be afraid to have failures because from these failures you would learn, and I definitely agree with him.
Failures are a part of life. Learning from these failures is an opportunity for you to grow as a person, and be a “work in progress”. Let them be your stepping stones to reaching your goals and being successful in life.
