BRX Pro Tip: If You Learned Something, You Didn’t Fail
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] And we are back with Business RadioX Pro Tip. Stone Payton, Lee Kantor here with you this morning. Lee, today’s topic, today’s assertion, if you learn something, you didn’t fail.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:14] Right. I think people have such a fear of failure that really holds them back and they’re afraid to try things and they make failure into this whole big deal. And if you can reframe failure into learning, you are going to be so much happier in life and you’re going to get so much more things done because you’re going to be trying so many more things.
But I don’t know why people are so hung up and afraid of failing. And especially in America, this is something that it shouldn’t be part of our culture. There are some other parts of the world where you only get one bite of the apple and it better work for you or else, you know, there’s shame and you don’t get another try. But here in America, it’s not that way. There are so many entrepreneurs, there are so many people trying things.
You have to get past this fear of failure. If you can reframe failing into learning, you are going to be so much happier. You are going to be so much more likely to try new things and take more risks and have better success if you can stick with it for any length of time. So please reframe failing to learning and you will enjoy a lot happier life and a lot more success.
