Nurture your tolerance for failure

Nurture your tolerance for failure

from How Innovation Works: Serendipity, Energy and the Saving of Time by Matt Ridley

How to Apply This

  1. Reflect on how you usually handle failure.
    Think of the last time you failed to accomplish something. How did you handle it? How did it make you feel?
  2. Write down how you could better handle failure.
    If you were to fail again this time, how would you deal with it?
  3. Remind yourself why failure is a good thing.
    Failure will allow you to see what’s not working, enabling you to make adjustments and innovate further.
