Today, we keep our focus on one commencement speech that has the power to change our perspective on success and failure – the "Fall Forward" Commencement Speech delivered by Denzel Washington at the University of Pennsylvania.

Denzel Washington is an Academy Award-winning and Tony Award-winning actor and director.

In this episode, Supriya shares with you some great outtakes we can all learn from his famous speech:

1. Take risks - As Nelson Mandela said: "There is no passion to be found playing small—in settling for a life that's less than the one you're capable of living."

2. Embrace failure - First, you will fail at some point in your life. You will embarrass yourself. You will suck at something. Every failed experiment is one step closer to success.

3. Failure is better than not trying - As his wife said "To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did." Get out there and give it everything you've got.

4. Be open to life - Learn to accept new views and be open to new opinions. Be willing to say yes to opportunities no matter how frightened you are.
