In a world that usually lets me down, the certainty that I will always fail is something I’ve come to depend on. I’ve developed a tremendous faith in my inabilities. When all of life’s questions overwhelm me in the dead of night, I don’t need to wonder what the future holds for me. I have the peace that comes with the knowledge that no matter what happens, I will probably get it wrong anyway. And it’s a really good feeling. I highly recommend it, actually, as a lifestyle choice. Once you decide to be a failure, it’s amazing how everything crystallizes. It’s easier to make decisions, too, when you can be sure of the outcome.
