Everyone will have a failed spell every once in a while.  It doesn’t determine your abilities as a witch!

When my magical workings don’t do what I need, I take time to think about what went wrong. Did I not have enough focus? Did I pick a bad date/time to perform the working? Etc etc

Its a good moment to think about what worked and what didn’t, and seeking to improve from there.
