I can accept failure but I can’t accept not trying. Trying does not mean trying an attempt, it means putting all your interest and effort into getting it. In that case, if we fail nothing will happen, it was not our fault, it was not because we did not put everything we had, it will be for other reasons and there are always other reasons. Therefore, although what we pursue is success and failure is bitter, bitter is the taste of a failure without having tried with all our energies.

Do not let that taste embitter your existence. Try it with all your strength. Go for it. Sometimes failure can hurt a lot. However, failure is part of life. Maybe if we understand this word in a different context, we can lose the fear. Failure gives us fear because it is a word that sounds final and definitive.

We believe that failure is a sentence of life. But in reality, failure means simply failing in coincidences. What do I mean by this? Sometimes we believe that failure is when a project does not work or a purpose is not met. We all fail, but do everything on your part so that this does not happen. We all like success, challenge ourselves and overcome sporting challenges, for example, decrease the times in a race, run harder, get a certain place, go up the podium, etc. All this makes us feel good and in turn, stimulates us to face and reach new challenges in the future … But there is one that generates a real positive impact: running a marathon.

Many who ran short distances or 21K in the eMDS last year, maybe asking, and now what? The answer will be answered automatically since the brain it automatically propels you to the new challenge … Success, or what we feel when goals are achieved, eliminate fears and decreases anxiety increases cognitive abilities (intelligence, thoughts, language, memory, concentration, etc.) also generates more creativity to solve problems and also we drive and prepares us to go for more. All this is caused by what is called the winner effect.

The Winning Effect consists of the idea that SUCCESS CALLS SUCCESS that is, winning makes we will prepare ourselves to win again, the product of motivation, energy, and perseverance. HE generates positive feedback There is also the phenomenon of “anticipation of reward “, that is, we act thinking that it will not go wrong in the future because it was already well in the past and that from that future we will obtain something positive. But the most interesting thing is that all the situations mentioned above are seen enhanced by the biochemical effects that occur in the brain.

Win a race, a competition, meet our goals, or your own expectations, feel full, immediately in the brain secrete certain hormones that they make a neurotransmitter called dopamine to increase its production, generating pleasure. And this is what, in short, makes us go for more.
