Do you want to know the secret to success? Fail more.
Yes, you heard me. The most successful people in the world fail, often. They possess a growth mindset, which means that they view failure as an opportunity for growth. In doing so, they achieve mastery in all areas of their life.
People are so afraid to try new things for fear that they will fail. Why? Because we are taught from an early age that failure is the result of a lack of ability, so we avoid making mistakes for fear of embarrassment.
You need to realize that failure is your greatest asset, because it tells you what works and what doesn’t work.

I make mistakes every day in my business. In doing so, I learn valuable lessons, which ensures that I don’t make the same mistakes again in the future. Why do so many people stay in their comfort zone? Because it's comfortable. Research shows that your comfort zone is a behavioral space where your activities and behaviors fit a routine and pattern that minimizes stress and risk.
Arnold Shwarzennegger understood that this commitment to excruciating failure wasn't for everyone: “This area of pain divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion. That's what most people lack: having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain, no matter what happens.”
You can only grow if you are willing to try new things. Growth demands that you fail more. There is a sense of accomplishment that comes from pushing yourself beyond your comfort zone. When it comes to failure, don’t play the blame game. You are the master of your emotions.
You cannot control the outside world, but you can control your inner world. Jonathan Martensson said that, “Emotions are much like waves, we can’t stop them from coming but we can choose which one to surf”. Fear is a powerful, and sometimes crippling emotion. You need to learn how to use fear to your advantage so that you can achieve your goals.
How do you this? By turning fear on its head. Instead of letting it destroy you, let it push you forward. Fear can become a powerful motivator, if you allow it to be. The more that you are willing to experiment and try new things in your business, the more successful that you will become.
Don’t be afraid to take a risk and try new things so that you can grow, improve and move forward. In the words of Tony Robbins, “Focus on where you want to go, not on what you fear”. If you want to succeed, fail more.
