Failing with Flair

In order to overcome the fear of failure, you must develop courage.  This week Luis Rozo shares with Angi San Souci how he developed the courage to get up and try again when venturing from his home in Columbia to the United States.  Even when the situation looked its bleakest - having sold all his possessions and needing to find a way to take care of himself - Luis found a way.  You'll hear the enduring story of getting up and trying again, even when Luis felt like he was out of the game.  Perseverance is the key.

It has been said that what you think about, you bring about.  When you focus on the failure, you have more failures.  When you focus on gratitude, you get more to be grateful for.  This week Mike Kok shares his story with Angi San Souci about his journey of focusing on all the wrong things, and how a change in focus changed his life.  Mike Kok discusses how a lack of gratitude becomes a blessing blocker.

This is part two of my career journey with failure - where I stepped out into entrepreneurial life, and it didn't exactly go as I thought it would.

The only way to really fail is to quit.  But what are you ACTUALLY quitting?  I'll explore this idea by talking about my failed marriage and my divorce.
