I hate success stories. Most of us are not designed for success. Join me if you prefer inspirational failure stories. Learn to fail, learn resilience, and learn how to fail better. Parts A and B of this series are languishing somewhere in my Failure file. You probably won't be able to find them even if you try.

Let's dive into Part C without further ado:

Cooking

It is relatively easy to fail at cooking, and this crucial skill comes with a surprising number of benefits. Listicle ahoy:

  1. Any dependants you have will learn to cook for themselves.
  2. You will be invited to dinner parties to discuss your hilarious cooking debacles, and no one will expect (or want) you to return the favour.
  3. Your weight will stay within the optimum range as a vast number of calories will be consigned to the bin.
  4. Your dog will love you.

I came, I wrote, I conquered. That last bit might not be true, but at least I am putting up a good fight.
