HOW EPIC FAILURE CAN HELP YOU ACHIEVE EPIC GOALS
Failure can demolish us—or at least shatter our confidence. It can make us question our worthiness, second guess ourselves and feel like we need to shoot a little bit lower next time.
But to New York Times bestselling author Anna David, failure is the best thing that can happen. The host of the Fail Your Way to Success podcast, David has written about failure for Psychology Today and Entrepreneur. And she believes that failure can be a sign that we haven't been shooting high enough.
In “How Epic Failure Can Help You Achieve Epic Goals,” David walks people through the failures of high-profile leaders, shares studies about the different impact failure can have on us and asks audience members to look at their own struggles and successes. She then pushes them to come up with EPIC (Extraordinary, Powerful, Impactful and Courageous) goals based on the lessons they’ve learned from their most epic failures.
Using wit, live journaling exercises and unique stories—about topics as varied as meeting a goal 27 years after setting it and learning about manifestation from a pre-fame Matt Damon—David provides audiences with specific journaling exercises and actionable steps. Even better: every participant leaves with an EPIC Goal Workbook that already has their initial goals and actions mapped out.
EVERY ATTENDEE RECEIVES THEIR OWN EPIC GOAL WORKBOOK
The EPIC Goal Workbook is half inspirational message and half workbook for you to dig down into your soul to extract your deepest desires and put them on the page.
Prepare to unearth your dreams, and then make them come true.
