Ironicly, April looks to be the month of “try try try, it won’t matter if you fail” conversation among leadership writers and coaches. The following came through today from “The Daily Source“:
“Look for ways to experience failure. Only through failure do we grow, and we just aren’t letting ourselves fail enough. We are stunting our growth. As leader or prospective leader, you likely don’t fail very often. How about trying something new? Go run a marathon. Try-out for a local theatre production. Take the most challenging class you can think of. Buy a canvas and some paint and try to paint a masterpiece work of art. Start to get comfortable out of the band of success.”
I’m writing a fiction novel.
What are you doing to stretch yourself?
