In this episode, Dan and Tracey talk about the mindset of perceiving failure as the final destination. They believe that failure instead is just part of a learning process that can lead towards gaining the results you desire.  

Here is a taste of what Dan and Tracey cover in the conversation

  • Tracey gives an example of Thomas Edison and quotes him, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” 
  • Tracey states when a leader has a mindset in believing failure is learning, it can facilitate innovation, where experimentation acts as the means to achieve the end. 
  • Dan believes in reprogramming oneself so that you don’t think about failure, instead learning to focus on new ideas, innovation and experimentation.
