Start and Embrace Failure

Sep 17, 2024

You have to be willing to start, and you have to be willing to fail. There’s no other way to know what the next step is without both.

When it comes to running a business, planning is essential. I’m not saying you should dive in haphazardly—I believe in risk, but I also believe in calculated risk. You can plan until the cows come home, but if you never actually start, that plan means nothing. Not only do you have to be willing to start, but you also have to be willing to fail.

Start and Embrace Failure

You have to be willing to start, and you have to be willing to fail. There’s no other way to know what the next step is without both.

When it comes to running a business, planning is essential. I’m not saying you should dive in haphazardly—I believe in risk, but I also believe in calculated risk. You can plan until the cows come home, but if you never actually start, that plan means nothing. Not only do you have to be willing to start, but you also have to be willing to fail.

Failure often gets a bad rap, but it shouldn’t. You learn so much from failure. It’s all about perspective—failure is full of lessons, not losses. It’s nearly impossible to see the next step if you’re not willing to start or to fail. These two are synonymous.

James in the Bible says, “Faith without works is dead,” which means if you believe but don’t put any action behind that belief, it’s as if you didn’t believe at all. Take that step and embrace failure, I promise it’s worth it.
