Listen "#332: Freedom to Fail"
Episode Synopsis
Did you know that Michael Jordan, considered by many to be the greatest basketball player ever, missed 12,345 field goals in his Hall of Fame career?He said, “I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” Wayne Gretzky, the NHL’s all-time leading scorer, put it this way: “You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take.”In today’s culture, risk and competition are often removed from boys’ environments. They lose interest when there isn’t anything at stake. So, they think, “Why should I try?”As parents and mentors trying to raise godly boys, we need to provide challenging opportunities that let boys fail, recover, and eventually succeed.For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
