Jim Katsoulis explains how the quote "there is no failure, only feedback" changed his weight loss. Instead of seeing a dietary mistake as proof he'd failed, he learned to treat it as information to adjust his strategy and improve.

The quote that made me thin. There is one quote that has been instrumental in helping me to master my weight, and it's that there is no failure, only feedback. Because before this quote, when I would try things to lose weight and make a mistake, I would use that as evidence that I was a failure, that I could not do it. And when I learned this quote and I really started to use my mistakes as feedback so that I could improve and optimize what I was doing and get better at it, it was absolutely transformative. And you can use this as well so that when you make a mistake, you don't take it as evidence of you being a failure. You use it as more information so that you can come up with a better strategy to help you reach your goal.
