Too many people are paralyzed by the fear of making mistakes. They beat themselves up over small errors and allow self-criticism to prevent them from taking necessary risks. I’ve learned that this mindset is completely backward.
Every super successful person I know has failed spectacularly. These aren’t just minor setbacks—I’m talking about failures that would make most people quit. The difference is that these individuals used their failures as stepping stones rather than stopping points.
Stop being so hard on yourself.
