You should really add to this question. Why do you feel like a failure?
No one is really a failure. Some people get set back in life and others do not.
You could still be living at your parents which people could call you a failure for but that just means you're not ready to leave the nest- or maybe you're still in school or you just don't make enough money to make it on your own. Etc.
Some would call a person who doesn't go to college a failure but maybe you don't need college for your career or you're working a crap job now to save up money for college.
Maybe you're not in a relationship- some don't like commitment, some don't have time, some just don't feel the need to have one.
Maybe you don't have any children or you had them too early.
There's plenty of reasons a person can be called a failure but the main thing is to realize everything in life happens the way you want it to happen. If something is slowing you down and making you feel like a failure than you need to do something about it. Move on with your life and stop feeling so down.
I'm only 20 and I've made mistakes but they make me a stronger person and sometimes I feel like a failure but everyone doubts themselves sometimes- just try not to because if you think you're a failure you are going to be a failure and that does no one any good.

i dont really get the question? lots of people feel a failure at some time in their life. some of us are more sensitive than others to our emotions. these can get in the way and make us feel everything is going wrong in our life, i know it sounds lame when someone says try and find the positives and focus on them for the time being even if you think their is no positives but trust me there will be something you do well, i guess you just need to do some kind of soul searching. try and think even getting out of bed in the mornings is an achievement or walking to the shops, just try and pat your self on the back for little things and hopefully you can start to pick yourself up a bit. if things arent going right for you at the moment try and remind yourself it is just a blip. we all have them. good luck!

Well then here's some tough love for you....
Get your butt off the computer and go out and accomplish something. Build something. Make something. Create something. No one likes a whiner...especially at such an early age. Stop watching television and paying attention to psychobabble...and just DO something...you'll not feel like a failure any longer...

Oh no, at your age you feel like a failure.
You have a long time to feel like a success. Your're in the time and at a difficult age when you are trying to find your way. Try not to compare yourself to anyone else; this is
very important
Ease up on yourself and wait for miracles that will come to you in the now and future.

I would need more details of what is happening in your life at present that makes you feel this way. At this age sometimes we look at others and compare ourselves negatively. We had certain expectations and if they have not happened yet we look at this as being our fault because we are not good enough to have accomplished this. You should be kinder to yourself and realize that everyone is different and that sometimes events occur quickly and sometimes slowly. Everything works out the way it should in the end. Be kind to yourself you are worthy and it just takes time.

Read the story on Yahoo about Nola Ochs, a 95 year old woman who is getting ready to graduate from college. This story shows that it's never too late to change your life.

How silly...you have many many years ahead of you to feel like a failure. Excuse yourself from your pity party. Set acheivable goals in steps.

If you don't give up, you haven't failed.
Not trying is the only failure.
Thomas Edison said of his failures: "I haven't failed. I have just found 100 ways that don't work."
And Yoda said: "Do or do not. There is no try. "

At 24? You still have so much life ahead of you to accomplish your goals. Get out there and get busy!
