Failure is
something
we can avoid
only by
saying
nothing,
doing
nothing,
and
being
nothing.

Reclaiming failure is about owning failure – making failure work for us instead of being something to fear or avoid. By understanding how failure works, and talking through tactics for changing our relationship with failure, we can learn faster, grow more, and achieve things we might not have even attempted before.

No human ever became interesting by not failing. The more you fail and recover and improve, the better you are as a person. Ever meet someone who’s ALWAYS had EVERYTHING work out for them with ZERO struggle? They usually have the depth of a puddle. Or they don’t exist.
Chris Hardwick
But instead of spending our lives running towards our dreams, we are often running away from a fear of failure or a fear of criticism.

I’d rather be a failure in something that I love than a success in something that I hate.
