Tip #4 – Fail Fast!

Tip #4 of living the best years ahead of you…fail at many things and learn from each success at failing!

When I was young, whenever I failed at something, I was punished. I taught myself to not take risks. I taught myself to live the safe life.

I remember wanting to move to France in my twenties, but I could not find the courage.

I wanted to go to Alaska to teach and did not do it.

I talked myself into believing that I was bold. The truth is, I was a little bold. I did backpack through Europe on very little money.

The near misses on adventures are what I regret now.

My regrets do not mean that I am unhappy with my choices.

My regrets are now my guideposts to accept new bold endeavors that come my way. I want to fail fast. I want to fail forward. I want to dust off my ego and laugh at myself!

How about you?

What are you willing to fail at?

Always on your side,
