Chasing Failure!

in motivational •  6 years ago 

🤹Simone Giertz is a REALLY COOL creative robotics inventor!🤹

This 27 year old has a career she loves, freedom of time, and money...HOW??? 🤔🤔🤔

In this impactful short video, Simone explains how she turned being afraid of failing into her strength! No longer does a 4-year degree guarantee much more than debt and check mark on our resume. The path to success is learning to "Fail Forward" at what excited us!

Most of my life, I was driven by a fear of failure. I tried my hardest to avoid shame & embarrassment.

As a pediatrician for 15 years, I've had the privilege of watching children and families grow. Despite living during a time of extraordinary access to information, improved safety, and incredible interconnectivity, depression & anxiety are worsening!!! Based on research and clinical practice, the fear of failure can have devastating effects.

Silicon Valley uses sayings like "fail fast and fail often." My goal is to teach children and families how to "FAIL BETTER" to build resilience & success to prepare for an exponential future!

Thank you Simone Giertz for your example of how to "Fail Forward"!!!
