When I reflect of pivotal moments of my childhood, they all feature a failure of some kind, varying in intensity from earth shattering to a mere humbling. Failure is embarrassing as hell. It can be one of the toughest things to experience. And it happens a lot in life. If you're not putting yourself at risk of failure then you're also not allowing any opportunity to succeed. Double edged sword. Today I'm going to talk about all the times I have failed and how it effected my life. Arguably all my most embarrassing moments. Hope you enjoy! I wont!

Topics discussed:

  • Putting yourself in the position to fail
  • Defining failure for yourself
  • Failure in sport
  • The “I’m not good enough” narrative becomes a self fulfilling prophecy
  • Finding peace through doing your best
  • Feeling entitled to success
  • Giving up because you have failed too many times
