I met Jim Mazziotti a month ago. A blink of aneye, and I was a guest on his podcast, ‘Senior to Seniors,’ obviously focusingon seniors. Gosh, I’m an octogenarian. A perfect interview. Check it out. Now Iget a chance to host Jim, a fascinating, hugely accomplished top real estateand property specialist. He is eloquent, successful, giving, sensitive, andcaring. A visionary, family man, and author. Now watch this. Today’s interviewdeals with ‘How to Fail Forward.’ The most important skill in business and lifeis not the ability to succeed. It’s the ability to fail forward. This isbrilliant thinking. Comes from John C. Maxwell’s landmark work. Achievingsuccess through failure. You all really should watch this interview. In themeantime, some ideas and words to energize. Often, Jim talks about reducingfear. Allow failure. Take action. Failing backward is waving a white flag.Failing forward is accepting everything. He originally studied music. Wouldlove to meet Paul McCartney. They filmed Field of Dreams a mile from his housein Iowa. He left Iowa bravely and went to Oregon, and now is in Texas. He is insales. I was in eyewear sales for 25 years. We relate well to each other. Weall face failure. You are not your failure. Recognize and move forward. Failureis a price we pay to achieve success. Simply brilliant. Real. Necessary. AIcan’t help you as Jim can. I told him this. I took two pages of notes duringthe interview. And he’s coming back. He made my day.” Calvin🎙️ 813+ Interviews &Videos; 5 ½ years (AI-ranked podcast in these categories in the top 1 -2%Globally!)📺 9,550+ Subscribers —and growing👉 Please Subscribe:https://www.youtube.com/c/ConversationswithCalvinWetheSpecIEsGLOBAL Reach.
