what is failure?

Some time ago, I received an email from a listener about one of our podcast episodes, "Confronting the Fear of Failure."

The listener wrote: "The episode on "Confronting the Fear of Failure" was a compelling dive into the intricacies of failure as a catalyst for growth. Miguel, your approach to reframing failure as a tool for personal and professional development is both enlightening and empowering.”

You determine what failure is and what it does. Anyone looking from the outside in can name something to be a failure, however, for you it could just be a lesson or a setback or a setup for something greater.

We are often quick to label something as a failure when in fact, while it may be a deviation of the norm or what was expected, it doesn't have to destroy your intended purpose.
