Get OVER Failure, Deal with DISAPPOINTME...

Impact Theory
About this episode

Experiencing the highest level of success also means experiencing as many failures as it takes to reach your goals. It may be uncomfortable, but making mistakes and failing is part of the game. Wallowing in the disappointment we can all feel after failing something, does not take you any closer to succeeding.

Tom is sharing the perspective he’s developed and refined to become the entrepreneur that he is. Becoming capable of executing at elite levels of success comes with every failure and mistake you make along the way. Failure will teach you all that you need to know to succeed, but you have to be willing to make the mistakes without sitting in disappointment.

“Success is the ability to go from failure to failure to failure, without a loss of enthusiasm.” - Winston Churchill
