Growth begins at the edge of your comfort zone. Learn to expand your mental horizons and build a healthy relationship with the fear of failure.

To build new connections in the brain and learn we need to fail. Becoming an expert in anything requires being comfortable with being a crappy amateur.

A great paradox of success is that it is built on a foundation of failure. Perfection is actually a common cause of fixed mindset attitudes and can block growth.

Learn practical strategies to embrace the lessons hidden in setbacks and turn fear into a stepping stone for success:

• The failure rates of real success


• How to determine what a healthy failure rate is


• Build deliberate practice routines


• Create an enjoyment of the journey - mishaps and difficulty included

It’s time to change how you view challenges and start celebrating the growth that comes from every misstep.
