How about we talk about failure? (Yes, again.) Why? Because we really don’t talk about it enough. We skirt around the word. Even when we seem like we’re ok with it, are we? Are you?
What if we redefine failure as just another data point? You follow?
Instead of thinking we lose anything we begin thinking that we are gaining information. It’s true isn’t it? Aren’t we figuring things out by process of elimination? Doesn’t that really just bring us closer to what we want? To where we want to go? To who we want to be?
The answer? Yes, that’s exactly what it does.
So this new year why don’t you decide that failure is just another data point and give ourselves to fail more?
Honestly what’s there to lose?
