Once I was skiing and was falling a lot and getting angry. Then my friend said "It's cool you are falling because that means you are challengeing yourself and you will get better." That allowed me to not take falling as a failure.

So this post has the similar message. Or I'm adding abit - that if you do go to the point of failure it doesn't mean you have failed, it actually can mean you are getting better and testing or playing at the very edge of the level of your current expertise.
