Episode 91: The One About Failure

On today’s episode, we discuss the importance of failure on the journey to success. Often when we start something, we expect to be good immediately. Today, we dispel that myth and reframe it.We go into depth on:The importance of having reasonable expectations from the beginningHow to persevere through the inevitable challenges of something newHow to comparing yourself to someone years ahead of you leads to disappointmentWhy you need to be terrible at something before you can be good at itWhy embracing your own failures as learning experiences leads to lasting success.We need to increase our tolerance for failure. We need to get to a place where we don’t internalize the failing and believe that we, ourselves, are a failure as a result of failing. Failing is inevitable on the journey to success.
