Failure

from Mission Imperfect: navigating life with coaches Kirsty and Kathryn · host Kirsty Brunker and Kathryn Ball

Thomas Edison helps us shed some light on the problem of the usual “boom” reaction to perceived failure, and the difference between being a failure and failing at something. We consider how our feelings about “failure” can be changed by the word “yet”; understanding what we truly want, and acceptance of the impermanence of both failure and success. Kathryn tells us how “failure” later resulted in marriage, and Kirsty shares how she’s made peace with “failing” at marriage. Which is all decidedly unbiscuity – sorry! Today’s question for you to mull over and which we also answer in the episode: Can you think of a positive outcome from what was originally a “failure”?
