Failure is a part of life. We all experience it in different ways, but the one common thread is that it doesn't feel good. It can be downright demoralizing, discouraging, and disheartening. And yet, it's also an essential part of the learning process. If we never failed, we'd never learn anything new or improve upon our old skills. The key is to pick ourselves up after a failure and keep moving forward. Stan Pearson's journey isn't rags to riches. It's more about fighting his own issues within & helping himself and others overcome failure.
