If you’re not prepared to be wrong (aka failure), you’ll never come up with anything original.
We literally have to fail our way to success.

Good morning New Years Eve.
Ahhh, the final day of 2017.
Hoping when this post goes live in 30 days, my signed contracts will have generated almost as much revenue as all of 2017.
Impossible, right?
To not yet be into the second month of the year (when this goes live) and be just shy of last year’s total revenue is something i never saw coming.
Note: 2017 was by far the best of my first three years on my own, or “Life after Disney” as some say. So to be within striking distance of topping the best year ever is surreal.
Second note: The final seven months (May-Dec) of my second year (2016) i had no contracts – a seven-month drought. Plus, there were no contracts for 2017. This is about as scary as it gets. “Maybe i was wrong about leaving Disney” permeated my waking thoughts.
Hope and faith sustained me when all seemed lost.

Where would we be without failure?
Failure (and the fear of failure) gives you a wonderful opportunity to learn and try again differently.
Failure also means you are moving forward.
Note: There are rare times and places for inaction – it usually involves our primitive instinct for flight or fight – when our physical safety is in question – and we freeze (we don’t move, or act).
Sometimes, we stay frozen – unable to move (no decision and no action).
When we choose not to decide, we still have made a choice.
Here’s the competitive advantage though for taking action:

Decisiveness doesn’t always mean making a great choice. But making a choice always tells you something. No choice, no feedback.
Failure is some of the best training time and money can buy.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
