Growth Through Failure

(outline and show notes)

Growth through failure podcast episode 9 (outline) failure comes in many shapes and sizes for people maybe some see a big red ‘F’ on the test they studied so hard for as failure, maybe it looks like running a 5K and getting 3rd place, maybe it’s not creating the work of art you envisioned in you mind, maybe it’s not landing that dream job, or maybe for some nothing is perceived as failure -only an opportunity for growth failure is defined as, ‘the omission of expected or required action’ or in more simpler terms -THE LACK OF SUCCESS so what is success? how do we achieve success? is there ever perfectly obtainable success? success is a moment but we celebrate is mastery (how can we convert success into mastery?) -the opportunities we are given to celebrate a ‘near win’ ⁃ success is hitting the 10 ring but mastery is knowing that it means nothing if we can’t do it again and again ⁃ mastery is closing the gap from where you are and where you want to be, it’s for the sake of the craft but not for the sake of crafting it what does it look like to fail? is failure really what defines you or is it how you respond to it? ⁃ failure is a part of life, but it’s about what we do after that makes us who we are YOU ARE HUMAN.
