Thoughts of the Week: April 12, 2024

Failure isn't Forever.

There’s a fantastic saying: “don’t let fear of failure keep you from succeeding.” It can be applied almost anywhere. The only way to get what you want, is to keep trying. It might not work out the first time around - and it doesn’t for most - but you keep at it, and use that experience to learn, adjust, and try again.

True in any conversations you have, initiatives you take, testing you do, businesses you run, or even positions you apply for. Keep pushing, keep moving, keep going.

If there is a chance you could succeed — go for it.

Someone’s got to win - why not you?

As I’ve said many times - “it’s easier than you think to beat the odds, because the odds are based on average people.” The number of doors you can open and the opportunities you can create if you just let go of your fears and try are countless.

So drop the weight off your shoulders. Let yourself try, and give yourself the opportunity to succeed - and have the life you really want.
