Have you ever not done something because of your fear of failure? "What if I'm not good at this? I've never done this before. What if I can't do it?"
Billionaire entrepreneur, investor, and philanthropist, Sara Blakely's dad had a tradition of asking her and her brother "What did you fail at today?" at the dinner table. This encouraged the Blakely's spirit of adventure toward success. I remember a talk she gave to one of our masterminds and the feeling was that she didn't want to ever fail at trying. Not having a "Fail" story at dinner, was way worse than not succeeding at something where you were pushing outside of your own comfort zone.
Jana and I call this, "Getting into the STRETCH ZONE".
We discuss a parable for about a boy and his grandfather. We talk about Garrett McNamara and surfers chasing the 100 foot wave. Surfing monster waves is all about overcoming fear of failure.
We've read over 600 books. If you would like a list of OUR reading and listening list, connect through our website.
