I know, sometimes easier said than done! Failure can really de-rail us and leave us feeling unmotivated, frustrated and like maybe we should just give up on this dreaming business.
But, all of us fail. Things go off plan, accidents happen, stuff we could never have predicted throw us a curve ball. All of that is really a normal part of making big things happen in life.
Here is me talking about a recent failure of mine and my very best advice on how to deal with things when they go off track.
So, how do you deal with failure?? Share in the comments below!
JKMF – Just Keep Moving Forward!
I so easily forget this and get derailed, letting in the gremlins of doubt. It totally helps to know that everybody has things happen sometimes that can cause frustration, and open the door to doubt, but that you just keep going on your dreams and don’t let it be an opportunity to give up, but hang on to the inspiration and validity of the project or dream. Thanks for the timely reminder!!
I hope your computer is recoverable….

THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
I am a crafter, I sell a few things here and a few there. But I have a big idea that I tried to launch last fall. I have friends telling me not to give up but I am not sure they really get the “failure feeling” for an entrpreneur. I have to say I am really looking forward to your tool kit and thanks for being so honest with us!!

Yes, Andrea.. the failure feeling of being an entrepreneur is HUGE! so paralyzing and soul sucking! But, when we do just keep going – that is how we make our awesome big stuff happen.
