I really like the William D Brown quote. People aren’t failures, though sometimes is seems so. It’s so odd that it isn’t really failure that stops us, but rather, the fear of failure. In my own life, I still haven’t eradicated my fear of failure. That’s why I’m grateful for posts like this one. Your tip number 5 is perfect for me.

Amazing post! Really helps to gain deeper insights into our own mind and how we perceive failure. It’s true that we must keep marching forward in life and stick to our convictions – failures do come in the way, but they are not worth quitting our journey! Success is worth all the efforts and failures that come in its path!

I found the book used here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer.....dition=all

It’s been a while since I read it. If my memory serves me correctly it is mostly geared toward teenagers, and deals with self-esteem, problems of perfectionism, and finding out what your talents are.

I agree 100% with your comment, Bas. Thanks for articulating it so well.

On a side note, I get the feeling that people sometimes refer to the term ‘rational mind’ with negative connotation. Does anyone also notice that or is it just me?

That’s certainly an interesting title for a book, Kent!

Unfortunately, it seems the book is long out-of-print, and thus not available for order on Amazon.com. Too bad, as I got really curious about it… oh well.

Thanks for the recommendation anyway!
