Trying again after failing in front of everyone is the bravest rerun there is.

RESILIENCE

WHAT THIS MEANS

Coming back after failing in front of people is harder than the failure was. The first attempt cost you a result; the second costs you the safety of having stopped, because now everyone can see you still want it. That is why returning reads as braver than the original try ever did.

If you are there now, make the next attempt smaller and sooner. A quiet rerun with fewer people watching still counts as one. Let the people who saw the first one see that you are back, without turning it into a statement.
