Falling off the board showed you where your balance ends. Now you know where to stand.

Finding your limit is not the same as failing. The fall told you exactly where the edge was, which is information you cannot get by staying carefully in the middle. Everyone who is good at something mapped their edges by going past them a few times. A bruise is the price of a genuinely useful map.

After something goes wrong, ask what it taught you about your actual range rather than about your worth. Adjust your stance and try again inside the boundary you just found. The point is not avoiding every fall, it is learning where your balance really ends.
