The Fail Forward Project is one that is both exciting and scary. Scary because we don't talk about failure enough. Failure is taboo. We do everything we can to avoid experiencing it or talking about it. Even when it is mentioned, it's spun as this one-dimensional event that eventually led to some kind of success, and the success itself takes center stage. And yes, while failure can be, and often is, the catalyst behind many successes, we hardly sit with it long enough to do it justice. This project aims to give us the space to do just that. Come, let's unpack failure in all it's dimensions. Let's discuss the different ways we define it and myriad feelings associated with it: the fear, the disappointment, and the uncertainty. I'm excited about this project because it allows us destigmatize failure and appreciate it as a vital part of the learning process. By listening to the stories of other human beings who botched something (or thought they did), we build resilience for when we inevitably face our own failures. If you can make it, come to the inaugural Fail Forward event, listen to incredible stories, and share yours too. Your story could be just the thing someone else needs to hear to let them know they are going to be OK. I'm looking forward to attending and hope you will too.

I’m going to do some breakfast networking outside my comfort zone.. Who’d like to join me? On Friday 26th July 6:30am - 9:00am Brisbane City, the Christian Business Network (hosted by Colin Lee) has Daniel Flynn (ThankYou Co-Founder and Managing Director) speaking. For anyone who knows the ThankYou story or has heard Daniel speak, it’s awe inspiring. Even though it’s an amazing opportunity to also connect with fellow professionals, I quickly came up with a list of reasons not to attend: ... I’m not Christian ... 6:30 start is very early start ... the morning will be dark and cold ... how will I get there ... I’ll barely know anyone …... and the list goes on. I’ve found those who are really successful can flip these doubts to a positive outcome: Yes! It starts early, I’ll have the rest of my day ahead Yes! I’ll meet new people who want to grow their business and connections Yes! I’ll learn and be inspired by Daniel Flynn’s achievements and speech So I’ve switched the doubts out for a more positive outlook and bought a ticket. It will be my first CBN event, however not my first time with Colin Lee who has shown so many business owners his generosity. If you’re interested in attending you can book your ticket here: https://lnkd.in/g5cA7Kv2 Those who attend, reach out so we discuss business, data and profitability after the event. #BusinessNetworking #BrisbaneBusiness #ThankYou #ChristianBusinessNetwork

Events are a powerful way to connect with your community in real life. Do what you can to endorse, speak, or just show up at events within your community to spread the word about the work you’re doing and expand your network. If you can, organize your own event so that you can specifically target the types of people who might benefit from being involved with your tribe. Do you need more guidance?
