you know it has been said that if you
were too afraid of failing to start well
then you've already failed I mean I
think someone said that I don't know who
though and if they haven't I want you to
quote me on that and make memes and
stuff and you know make me look smart to
other people seriously though a fear of
failure is so devastating to your
potential and all the great
opportunities you have in this life and
in this video I want to go through some
areas of failure because surprise
surprise I am no stranger to it myself
and I think there are a few big fella
sees big myths about failing that hold
people back and by being afraid of
failing it's just not cool I don't know
what more I have to say if you're afraid
of failing you're not going to get
started you're not going to take action
I should clarify that if you're afraid
of failing but you do it the same way
you know someone's afraid of a lion but
they still fight the lion like in
gladiator then that's cool but if you're
afraid of failing so much that you don't
take action you don't do anything that
is going to hold you back and lead to a
life of total regret to looking back 10
years from now insane well wasted that
decade what's next let's day drink some
more and never take action and that is
not what I want for you here on this
channel so let's look at three big myths
about failing number one if you fail at
working for yourself you're going to
lose all your money actually actually
that's not a mess that one's true and I
did lose all my money completely and
that really sucked but nonetheless I'm
still arguing for failing here and why
it's not so bad so real mess number one
that if you fail you are going to lose
your friends or the respect of
colleagues friends or family this one
could not be further from the truth I
went through a brutal brutal business
failure that was fairly public in terms
of the nature of my business and the
networks I was in and guess what it only
did good things for me in terms of
family and friends as far as i know and
i'm like Ari Gold I got people
everywhere I know everything going on as
far as I know there is one
I heard about who made kind of an office
cuff remark about me saline and the guy
works in a bank I mean come on des his
own punishment there and aside from that
I heard nothing really negative on the
positive side i gained tons and tons of
friends by going after my business so I
made all these different entrepreneurs
entrepreneurial friends that to this day
are still great friends and as I went
through the failure none of them to my
knowledge at least really lost any
respect for me I know this because when
i restarted as a copywriter i got offers
to do partnerships to work together to
help each other out all this stuff right
away rather than be kind of the guy with
the plague because I go or the leper oh
that's the same rather than being the
leper that is you know kicked out by
going to failure I think people had
respect for they said hey you went for
it you went big you failed so what we
all do it and anything I think I earned
a lot of respect from at least the
people that matter right sure if you go
after your dream which happens to be
working for yourself or your own
business and you fail you better believe
the guy working at the bank who hates
his life and it's too scared to actually
start his own business of course he's
going to look at you and say well yeah
like I failed haha because how else is
it gonna he needs to protect his own ego
because he doesn't have the guts to go
after his own dream because he's too
scared of failing because probably if he
hasn't watched this video which he might
be very offended by at this point so the
people who matter will not lose respect
for you if anything you will gain more
and more of their respect because people
have a huge respect for people who take
control of their own life and go after
what they want so that is myth totally
false if you go after what you want even
if you do fail and stick with me and I'm
going to do my best to keep you from
failing but even if you do fail you will
gain friends you will gain respect and
you're a networks will be better for it
the second myth about failing i think is
people often look at working for
themselves as like a one-time
opportunity you know the fella see with
like business you know I've got it I've
got the one business ideas
make it for me right the reality is
there dozens if not hundreds of
businesses and opportunities you could
do throughout your life and holding off
for that perfect opportunity because
you're scared of failing is not going to
serve you at all you are much better
going for something and maybe maybe
failing and then taking that knowledge
taking everything you've learned from
that experience and then going after
something new because every year that
you work for yourself you'll learn more
about yourself you learn more of a
business and you'll probably discover
more opportunities so rather than being
left in a situation where you went for
the perfect opportunity and failed and
then you're like well I used up that
perfect opportunity i guess for the rest
of my life I'll just hang out and play
xbox instead of that you're going to
find out that there's way better
opportunities because think about it
when you're just starting out you don't
really know a lot no offense if you're
just starting out but you don't okay
it's like when the 14 year old boy like
gives his dad grief like dad you don't
know anything about women I know women
more like my son ever tries that he's
getting a 1950s style never mind but
because you don't know what you don't
know right so when you are starting out
you don't really know that much about
business you might have book knowledge
you might have video knowledge but a lot
of that changes in reality and this is a
good thing because it means a year or
two into business let's say you start
working for yourself for two years and
then you fail and you got to start again
you got to try something else you are
going to be so much smarter two years
and you're going to have so much more
people like a much better network sound
like Donald Trump so much more people
what people you're going to such a
better network and you're going to be in
a situation where you're going to also
have a lot of self-knowledge one of the
things that I found is going through a
big failure I gained a lot of wisdom
like I was much better at making
decisions before when I started the
business I had book knowledge I thought
I knew it all but I was kind of a
wiseass and I didn't know the real world
and afterwards I was a lot wiser a lot
calmer I could think things through a
lot more and we just became I think a
better entrepreneur because of it so
rather than going forward and failing
meaning you miss your opportunity if you
go for it and fail you're going to find
twice
many opportunities on the other side by
going for it you're going to meet new
people you're going to learn new things
and you're going to have way more
opportunities on the other end and the
less myth that i think holds people back
is that if they go for it and they fail
they're going to be left high and dry
just screwed and in a really bad spot
and often i think they could it's an
unknown spot it's a lot scarier than the
reality so there's some truth to this I
mean I mentioned before when I went for
it and failed I was broke broke broke
broke broke broke at the end and I mean
I was like guy who went into starbucks
with like his own starbucks branded
teeth from home just made at home rather
than pay the three dollars 40 there
because i couldn't afford it so i guess
the brokenness and yes you may have a
rough patch if you fail I'm not going to
deny that but to think of it as the end
of the world is completely not it's your
next step in the opportunity and very
very few successful entrepreneurs have
not been in a tough phase or down phase
and it's part of the journey and so at
the end of it you could look at it like
you're high and dry if you want to take
that kind of negative attitude but
really wherever you are right now okay
you have a certain business network a
certain amount of knowledge you have
certain job opportunities right in terms
of whatever job you have or could have
let's say for two years ago work for
yourself now I will make this argument
day and day and day again that if you
work for yourself you learn a lot more a
lot quicker than working for someone
else the amount of skills you pick up
just in a few months and the breadth of
skills that I think is a word that you
need to pick up on to just know all
sorts of different things you are going
to be very in demand if you ever do need
to get a job because a lot of the
entrepreneurial skills that are
important now like internet marketing
exide sales very in demand in all
companies so if you have the
entrepreneurial side you work for
yourself you learn how to be
self-disciplined self-motivated learn
things on your own guess what there are
millions of people who would love to
hire you including me because that's a
great skill set and personality set to
have developed now I would not encourage
you to quit
go back to a job but I want to throw
that out there where if you ever did
you're going to be more in demand than
when you started your business the other
thing let's say you want to do which I
would encourage you to do is start
another company start something new so
for example i started my business which
was a newspaper type thing let's not get
into the details now and when it failed
I became a copyright a freelance
copywriter so I went into this with a
lot of knowledge when I had the
newspaper that's when I'd read a few
books about copywriting I developed more
sales skills I had built a lot of the
assets which help me then be successful
so again wherever you are now two years
from now if you take two years to work
for yourself at the end of that you're
going to be in such a better position in
terms of who you are and that's going to
open up so many more doors so whether
that means working for someone else or
continuing to work for yourself there's
myth of being high and dry like I'm
screwed now I went for it it's total BS
you're going to be so much more better
connected you're going to be more
educated more wise you're going to have
more Skills and all that is going to
open more doors so yes you might have a
few months of being that guy in
starbucks with the t he made from home
that everyone kind of knows he made at
home but you live with it you move on
and you open way more doors and way more
opportunities I can say right now my
life now is so much better than it would
have been if that business had of
succeeded and kept going and I am so
grateful that I kept going that you know
when it did fail I took all that
knowledge and the skills and then you
know kept going and kept moving on with
it and so keep that in mind is yeah you
might have ups and downs but as long as
you keep going you're always developing
yourself you're always becoming better
and you're always getting more
opportunities because you're learning
more and more about what's out there so
that's it these are reasons that you
should not be scared to fail if anything
it sounds like you should fail hex
forget about succeeding go out there
start a business and fail the heck out
of it all right fail miserably come back
to me in two years and you'll be awesome
