Learning Lessons is Hard

Once again I feel like a total failure.  Why is trying to do the right thing so stinking hard?  Sometimes it seems like the whole world must be watching my life like it's a pathetic comedy.  Having what I think is a great idea once again come crashing down with the success of a faceplant.  Watching me get my hopes up and allow myself to become excited about something only to have it grossly underacheive the desired outcome.
No, I am not sitting here feeling sorry for myself, but for the group I am supposed to be helping.  I am frustrated and embarrassed that I have let them down once again.  I can't help but wonder if there is something I am supposed to be learning...am I taking on too much, filling my life with unnecessary stress?  Should I be standing up for (or against) something that I am not?  Should I be asking for help instead of trying to do it all myself?  I have learned how to do things differently next time to get a better result, but that doesn't comfort me RIGHT NOW.  It is a lesson learned for the future but does nothing to help the present situation.  Learning lessons is no fun at all....
