Increase Your Failure Tolerance [20 Ways]
Failure is not a dirty word.
It’s a word people don’t like to talk about, yet failure is the root of success.
Rarely will business owners tell you about their failures until they have become highly successful. In our society, failure is associated with feelings of shame.
Let’s face it talking about shame is an even more taboo to discuss than failure. If we ALL talked about our business failures no hold barred, what a relief that would be. Then no of us would feel alone.
Since talking about failure is not common place, let’s look at how to INCREASE failure tolerance.
Here are 20 WAYS to increase your failure tolerance:
1. Ask yourself what you have learned after you identify a failure
2. Find another way, test and try again
3. Repeat #2
4. Never give up
5. Celebrate your wins no matter how small
6. Call a friend tell them how crappy you feel
7. Do an activity you really enjoy
