Hey everyone, and welcome to the entrepreneur heroes podcast. In this episode, I'm going to be talking about dealing with repeat failure. So I want to confess to you guys something. I'm a serial leading gold standard failure. Yeah, that's right. Don't switch off the, because listening to failure can actually help you. Because listening to my failures helped me. And they taught me so much stuff that success couldn't teach, and it definitely won't teach. Usain Bolt talked about all of these years of training his failures to just be successful for under 10 seconds. And sometimes it can take many, many years of training to find a success, many years of failing to find a success. But you know, what? Every failure is a lesson. You know, why I say is, when I fell, I don't use those words anymore, because failure has negative connotations. When you think of failure, you feel bad. And when you feel bad things happen inside your brain, inside your body, in how you feel, and it can really affect a lot of other things. This is why saying, I'm a failure, I failed is wrong. So for those of you listening right now, if you failed to say, I haven't failed, I've just found another way, that doesn't work. So I'll repeat that. I haven't failed. I've just found another way. That doesn't work. And that's fine. Because Congratulations, you just succeeded at finding something that didn't work. Because you wouldn't have known otherwise. If it had worked would have been great. Would you really have succeeded in that? Would you really have said, Hey, man, this is it. I've failed a lot of times, many times 1000s of times, maybe even more hundreds of 1000s of times, if you think about every failure. You know, I failed my driving lesson a couple of times. But I learned what I was doing wrong. I failed. In pretty much everything I've ever done. Good. I felt improper. Yeah, I felt in the commerce, I failed in business. But it taught me so much stuff that the school of hard knocks is definitely the best school. But can you deal with it? That's the biggest thing. Can you deal with failure? Do you have the persistence to keep going now? Those of you that have seen Rocky, you know the quote, right? How many times you can get hit before you can get back up? You got to keep getting up? Maybe that's not it? Exactly. But I hope you get the gist of it. Keep getting up, keep learning. Keep keep failing, but change the wording? Because I think there's one one guy, a Colonel Sanders, he felt so many times at 63 He started KFC. How many people do you know, in their 60s that are brave enough to start something up? Imagine your dad your granddad is about to start a business in his 60s? Well, you're gonna think, man, are you crazy. But it might just be that one time that you do it again. That it works. Because think about all of the lessons that you've learned in the past of what hasn't worked? Don't you think after a certain amount of time that the one thing you do implement, it will go well.

So I want you guys to, to change your mindset. And to start thinking in a positive way when things don't always go well, because you've always got an opportunity to learn. And sometimes the universe is telling you something if if something isn't working, maybe the universe is telling you you know what, maybe this isn't working right now. Maybe you're supposed to do other things. I've had other businesses that didn't work ideas that didn't pop. And they said Get me down because I I used to talk down to myself and think, What have I done like, Why me? But now I'm like, try me. You know, I've learned another way. It took good If this doesn't work it doesn't mean something else won't so I hope this has been a valuable lesson and I look forward to speaking to you guys in the next episode
