Let me ask you something — what’s your relationship with failure? Most people run from it, but here’s the real secret: failure is what pushes you to the next level. It’s not something to avoid; it’s something to embrace. 💥

I just dropped a new post all about failing forward and how the biggest lessons often come from the hardest hits. Want to know how to turn failure into fuel? Check out the post here →

4 Thoughts to Kickstart Your Day

1. Failing Is Just Part of the Game: If you’re not failing, you’re not trying hard enough. Every failure is a step toward success.

2. Failure = Lessons: The goal isn’t to avoid failure, but to learn from it. What did you miss? What can you do better next time?

3. You Grow Through Failure: Playing it safe keeps you stuck. Push your limits, fail, and come back stronger.

4. Celebrate the L’s: If you take a loss, own it. Celebrate the lessons learned because they’re what build your future success.

4 Lessons Learned

1. Failure Builds Resilience: Every time you get knocked down and get back up, you get stronger. Resilience is built in those tough moments.

2. Your Biggest Wins Follow Failures: Many of the greatest successes come right after the hardest failures. It’s about staying in the game.

3. Perfection Is a Trap: Trying to be perfect is a surefire way to stay stuck. Embrace failure as part of the process, and you’ll move faster.

4. Failure Is Data: Every failure is feedback. It tells you what didn’t work so you can adjust and do better next time. Don’t take it personally—analyze it and move on.

4 Challenges to Conquer Today

1. Identify a Recent Failure: Take a moment to reflect on something that didn’t go your way. Write down 3 lessons from it and how you can use them to move forward.

2. Stop Fearing the “No’s”: Challenge yourself to go for a few more “no’s” today. The more you put yourself out there, the faster you’ll find the “yes.”

3. Push Your Limits: Pick one area of your business or life where you’ve been playing it safe. What’s one bold move you can make today?

4. Celebrate a Failure: Yep, you read that right. Share a failure with your team or friends, and talk about what you learned from it. Normalize failing forward.
