It didn’t quite happen
I didn’t quite make it
I wasn’t nearly fast enough
I wasn’t nearly good enough
I didn’t possess the skills I thought I did
I didn’t hold the strength I thought I’d built
It didn’t start well
It didn’t end well
I didn’t make the distance
I didn’t make the grade
I should have trained harder
I should have listened
I should have paid attention
I should have focused my intention
I didn’t quite make it
It didn’t quite happen
No matter
All is not lost
Just as failure be the fuel for attainment
Disappointment is the inspiration for elation
With the benefit of the former
The latter will be greater
Will be so, so much more
At least it will be
Once I’ve picked myself up
Off the floor
