Growers,
Last weeked, we hosted our first Messy Roots Retreat for Coaches and Leaders. The conversations were nourishing to say the least! Headed into and out of the conference, I pondered on how we utilize failures.
Sometimes, I find myself numb to the failures in my life. In fact, I have used previous failures to determine the risk associated with a new task. "How would I feel if I failed at this as well?" If the failure was more significant than the risk, it wasn't happening. The system of how I saw failures actually prevented me from living a more fulfilled and authentic life.
While the retreat itself wasn't a failure, I found myself at the onset, hooked onto negative thoughts that coud've plagued me from fully operating in my gifts. Safety isn't always equivalent to something positive. I think the question we must as our self is not about the risk of failure but the growth we accrue by stepping out and into our destiny. I am excited for you to check out this podcast episode. In it, I explain why failure is necessary and how to add it to your system.
Love Y'all For Free,
Mario Jovan
