Failures

There is a certain irony in how the human brain works: for us to learn and grow, we also need to fail personally.

Babies do it naturally when trying to grab objects, sit up, or learn how to walk: they try, fail, try again, fail again…

When this was understood by the Espers on Esperia, it became evident that the inner fire brought by the Shape of Willpower, Faya, was one of the keys to the harmonious development of their civilization.

Someone who hasn’t failed still hasn’t really tried up to their true potential.

In cases of failure, balance is—as always—another key point. Too many failures won’t help, while too few won’t foster growth.

The Espers understood that the leap of faith taken by the younger ones was absolutely crucial.

This created a loop of responsibility: the younger ones became more responsible under the guidance of the elder ones.
