Failure is your friend.
Personally, I welcome failure. It has an open invitation to stop by
anytime. To heckle me. To get on my case. But most of all, to teach
me. To give me feedback.
Fear of failure is a real thing. It's something I dealt with for a
long time, and still do every so often.
Most often this fear is connected to our sense of self-worth. We
make failing mean something about ourselves.
Instead of it being a feedback mechanism that rallies us to shift
our strategy and try again, we take our failures personally. And
eventually we avoid failure at all costs by shrinking rather than
shining.
But here's the truth …
“Failure is Only Bad When You Equate It with Your Self-Worth”
On today’s episode of The Quote of The Day podcast, Wayne Dyer, the
self-proclaimed King of Failure, spells out where your worth really
comes from. Plus, why your approval is all the approval you'll ever
need.
Today’s clip comes from Dr. Dyer’s audio program Secrets of The
Universe available on the Nightingale Conant website and on
Audible.
