A good way to look at failure straight in the face is by writing a failure resume(简历)or CV. Like social media,there,we usually only see our friends’“highlight part”. When we look at others’resumes,we get scared and think how ours doesn’t measure up. But even the most accomplished people have plenty of failure behind them—we just don’t see it.
Stefan felt this deeply as a scientist,so she wrote a different CV which of course boasted (夸耀)about her good grades,PhD,and published papers. But the way she deals with her failure CV is a model of what we could a11 do.
“My CV does not reflect my great academic efforts—it does not mention the exams I failed,my unsuccessful PhD or scholarship applications,or the papers never accepted for publication. During the interviews,I talk about the one project that worked,not about the many that failed,”writes Stefan in a column for Nature.com.
Stefan suggests keeping a draft on which you log,casually but regularly,every unsuccessful application,refused grant proposal and rejected paper.
And that’s the point:not to consider what we got wrong,but to use that information to both look at failure and realize it’s really okay,and also to use our failures for another purpose:as learning tools.
The point is to be real—with ourselves and about how the world works. Being real means taking an honest,critical,but also kind look at what we didn’t get right,and then doing our best to change what we can. Instead of focusing on how that failure makes you feel,take the time to step back and analyze the practical,operational reasons that you failed.
So,prctice being okay with failure,and turning your failures into lessons learned. And yes,sometimes we have to learn those lessons more than once,letting go of what you can’t change. And keep moving forward to success.

There are around 600,000 vegans (素食者) in the UK. That' s just over 1% of the population — an amount expected to increase to 25% by 2025.

And big franchises such as McDonald's and KFC have announced meat-free chicken nuggets (鸡块) to come in the future.
What's. driving this popularity? Katrina Fox, founder of Vegan Business Media, believes it's the result of the breaking down of stereotypes (成见). ''Vegan food is no longer seen as a bit of lettuce and lentils — you can eat pretty much anything".
It's also claimed that there are health benefits. John Marulanda, owner of Mooshies is a vegan burger bar in London — wants to implement “a change to a healthy version of fast food. Something, he claims, that comes as a result of the inherent nutritional value of the ingredients they use.
But, is vegan fast food actually healthy? Azmina Govindji of the British Dietetic Association says ''not to assume" that is the case, ''It' s fine if those products have got vitamin B12, iodine or calcium added to them. but they can still be fried, it can still have lots of creamy, fatty sauces and lots of salt.
Given the current growth in orders, the trend for vegan fast food isn't likely to disappear any time soon, Health — wise, it may not be any more nourishing than regular fast food, but for many, the lack of animal suffering involved in the process is a big plus.
