Listen "Failure Is Fertilizer – How Will It Help You Grow?"
Episode Synopsis
On this episode of Realiteen Talks, host Gary McGuey and a panel of teenage guests discuss how to ensure your failures fuel your growth, not set you back.Everyone fails. Falling short of a goal or expectation is a part of life and part of what makes us human – and learning how to respond appropriately to those failures is key to unlocking your true potential.On this episode of FranklinCovey’s Realiteen Talks, host and High School Practice Leader for FranklinCovey Education Gary McGuey invited on a panel of three teenage guests to discuss how failure can be fertilizer.“When [some people] encounter failure, they just give up. They don’t continue,” one guest said. “The way I think of it – and the way I think everyone else should – is to look at it in a positive way.”The other guests agree, adding that failure helps us grow specifically because it shows us what doesn’t work or, perhaps, why a good strategy or plan failed, even though it has the potential to drive growth and success.Failure is also a tremendous way to discover new perspectives and engage with others who have been in your shoes. You aren’t the first person to fail in attempting whatever it is you have your eyes set on, and that means there’s someone out there who can help you diagnose that setback and push ahead.
