The Courage to Fail by Art Mortell
In our everyday business lives we all experience moments of rejection and failure. Some people take these negative experiences personally, allowing the resulting anxieties to sap their initiative and make them cautious and defensive. Successful people, however, are able to discover the benefits in failure and become far more resilient in the process. In this book, Mortell shows businesspeople who face these obstacles to success every day just how they can reap the benefits of failure and rejection. In addition, he explains exactly how these experiences can be used as springboards for testing new ideas, focusing sharply on goals and skills, and achieving personal and professional objectives. "The Courage to Fail" aims to show business readers that failure and rejection are problems only if they're allowed to produce debilitating anxieties. To forestall this chain reaction, Mortell helps readers gauge their attitudes toward failure, and outlines strategies for converting potentially paralyzing anxiety into added energy that assures creative results. The book includes advice on how to be amused by rejection and employ humour to defuse the effects of failure, how to eliminate the ten negative addictions people use to cope with failure, how to use four positive addictions to increase energy and sharpen creativity, how to excel without risking career burn-out, and how to recover swiftly from an array of professional setbacks.| SKU | Unavailable |
