Forum Admin Failure

[Shawn Gossman]

Do you ever feel like no matter what you do, you're failing at being a forum owner?

If so, how often do you feel this way? Why do you feel this way?

How do you overcome it? What do you do to not feel like a failure anymore?

No, I don’t feel like I’m failing. I actually think I’m doing well with what I’ve chosen to build. I’ve definitely had forums in the past that didn’t work out, but honestly, those weren’t ideas I was passionate about. I let them go, and that’s okay.


To me, failure isn’t when something doesn’t work, it’s when you stop trying, or stop caring entirely. There’s a big difference between something not succeeding and you being a failure. If you’re still learning, adapting, and pushing forward? You’re not failing.
