3 of My Videos Got Corrupted! What to do in times of Failure & Freak Accidents
Three of the videos that I recorded exclusively for DTube got corrupted and I was unable to retrieve them. In fact, a bunch of files got messed up. It can be tough when freak accidents or failures happen in life. You go through the stages of failure, but what determines a persons strength is not the failure, but the ability to bounce back from that failure. I outline some steps to get back on your feet after some painful setbacks occur in life.
- Accept the emotions - You're going to get emotional. You're not a robot. Accept it. Feel it. Don't deny it. Be aware of it. Don't release it to others, just be aware of it and take notice of the emotions your going through - frustration, anger, bitterness, sadness, etc
- Failure doesn't exist - Know that there is no such thing as failure. It is a setback, but is not an ultimate failure.
- Be constructive and learn from the situation. Something happened that could have been prevented. Focus on that and make sure to learn from the mistake.
- Talk about it and vent (in a positive way) - so when you talk about things, you release tension. If you talk about things in a positive light - you release inspiration.
- Find inspiration from the world around you. Look to others who are hustling and bustling. Look to others who got to where they are. Try to find stories in their lives that are similar. They have fallen too. But they got back up.
- Fail forward - as long as your failing forward, you're still moving forward. The only way to do this is to quickly get out of self-pity
- Take action right away - Move! Act! Get out of your mental self-pity mode that is preventing action and start to repair what's been broken or replace what's been lost.
- If you're breathing its not over. Failure is just part of the process of success. The only people that aren't failing are in the grave. If you're breathing, there's still a fighting chance!
- It's not how hard you fall - it's how fast you get back up.

Hey guys and gals, I’ve been a student of life and love to learn new things. I've studied film, acting (film and theatre), Natural Medicines, Psychology, Business and Photography. I’ve read over 2,000 different books and consume at least 50 new books a year. I also owned and operated a Consultancy Firm for about 3 years and was a professor for Personal Development for one of the leading schools in the field called John Robert Powers. Aside from working with over 3 fortune 500 companies, I’ve also owned and operated over 4 businesses. Along with that, I've travelled all over Europe, South America and Asia doing non-profit work for Orphanages and shelters. I also speak from time to time to Youth Groups and Churches. I hope that some of these personal life lessons add value to your life.
I believe that success is not our final destination. I don’t believe in failure, I believe in learning from mistakes. I believe that it’s okay to be obsessed. It’s evidence of passion in your life.

I've been having a problem posting and I keep getting this error message: Missing Posting Authority possiblememes, while I was able to post perfectly well yesterday and I was also able to post from dtube today I wondered if you have an idea what this could be about and what to do about it thank you... Hoping to keep hiking into the future
@dlife (58) I managed to solve this problem I was having posting just for your information it had to do with some kind of corruption in the post itself as yet I've not been able to identify what that was but I thought that it was interesting that you can add some kind of character maybe that's hidden into a post that doesn't allow you to make the post. So this morning I cleared the whole thing and try them different post whole different thing posted with no problem. Anyway just wanted to thank you again for the inspiration and perspiration and I enjoy your videos all the time keep an eye out for them on the dtube and look forward to hiking on into the future so as you might say stay positive 💡🔔☀️📸🌈☺️
The problem which you feel is serious matter which must be solved by steemit community
You get an upvote of DLife for being the first to comment!
To be fair, it wasn't DTube or steemit's fault. The corruption happened in the harddrive and I had deleted it from my memory card and switched cards (otherwise I might have been able to recover it from the card since I have recovery software) and I have around 100 memory cards so I wasn't able to locate exactly where the files were. So I decided - just move on! Fail forward! Lol
thanks for sharing. i believe the positive attitude is way of success.
I believe so too!! Only way to go! It changed my life :D
