Get yourself a Failure Resume



A  good resume is very important for a job application. Writing a good resume requires efforts & skills.
As a job applicant we endeavor to write a impressive resume. We capture our best achievements and highlight these achievements to prospective recruiters. Putting together best achievements in a resume is part of professional life.   At times, some of us go beyond but we must avoid this temptation and stay on the right course! An impressive resume increases the probability for an interview.
What if instead of only achievement laden resume, we tried to put together a failure resume listing all our failures. 
Next time, when you sit down to write a resume. Do also write a failure resume in addition to a regular resume, for yourself.  Spend quality  time writing a failure resume. Some of these failures would be the best moments of your life.
Introspection of these failures will help find insights to improve and remind you about those peaks which you were trying to scale.
Write down your failure resume & learn from these failures!
