ActiveBrad thinks we should ALL wake up every morning and get excited, motivated, and inspired to fail. This is how we learned to successfully crawl, walk, talk, and run. Succeeding at ANYTHING in life is not much different. So go out there and fail at something successfully today so you can succeed at it quicker!
"Failure is only the first step in acheiving Success!"
So being called a "failure" means you are all set for success... BTW -Love the picture.
Josef - no such thing as a failure, only an attempt that failed. Almost everything I have learned and shared here on AR, I first failed until I got it right. Much success to you my friend, even if there's a few failed attempts along the way! :-))
Blog-N-Roll...
I don't know if I've already commented on this or not. Frankly I got tired of reading the comment stream. I figure I'll say something to ensure that eventually this post will be shut down as well. If I fail to shut this down at least I'll be able to say I failed well :)
TLW...ROAR!
TLW - 10-15 comments or so to go, let's see if we have it fixed before this post hits 155, I think that was the temporary cutoff. I'm hoping they'll have that issue resolved in the next day or so. Thanks. Maybe this was a subconcious post? :-O Fear not, if we fail, we'll keep trying for success! :-)
Thank you for the post, as I sat today wondering if I should stay in Real Estate or venture back to the land of W-2. This post reminded me to pick myself up and get over it, go out there and learn from my recent trials and challenges and yes failures. This is one of my favorite pictures of all times, I am scared to death of heights and can't even imagine doing this. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones.
That's certainly putting a spin on it! I guess I need to get some good sleep so I can fail more at everything I need to do tomorrow.
1st tghask = Call BofA about their Short-sale module not accepting attachements. ughhh!
PS - Come to think of it... Now there's a corporate culture of failing to get it right. They MUST be VERY close to success at this point! :)
Fear Not...
Is in the Bible exactly 365 times. Do you know why? Never mind. It's rhetorical :)
TLW...ROAR!
One truly must FAIL Epically, in order to Succeed Epically
Got the 1st part down big time long time. Now that elusive 2nd part *looks around*

TLW - the one that I know says, "I will fear no evil...." :-)
@Daniel - hopefully this next year, you won't need to look far!
Kim - I saw your comment and just wanted to say that this post "IS" for YOU! Happy Holidays to you and your family, everything that you fear may fail will turn around for you and be your greatest successes, no matter what that may be. Just don't ever give up!! :-))
Brad, Good words all. Merry Christmas and thanks for all the help this year!
I'm ready to fail forward!
That photo makes me ill, though. My palms are sweaty and I'm lightheaded....
Rebecca - I wish you all the best at failing forward today and in the new year. :-))
