FAILURE IS AN OPTION
HOW SETBACKS BREED SUCCESS
Terry Robson
Terry Robson appears on national television and radio, including ABC 702, as well as editing Wellbeing magazine and writing for a range of magazines and newspapers. He has a degree in psychology and is also a qualified naturopath. This is his fourth book.
Everybody has experienced failure at some stage - and will no doubt experience it again, perhaps many times. The question is: does failure get the credit it deserves?
In this inspiring and practical book, Terry Robson reveals how success cannot be achieved without a willingness to embrace failure. He delves into the notion of failure from philosophical, psychological and spiritual perspectives, and provides the tools we need to not only cope with failure, but also to learn from it.
The insights of life coaches, psychologists, a Buddhist nun and a Christian minister are interspersed among interviews with people who have succeeded after failure --- including billionaire entrepreneur Gerry Harvey, world champion surfer Layne Beachley, singer Toni Childs and television personalities Antonia Kidman and Mikey Robins. This book is an indispensible guide to picking yourself up, dusting yourself off and discovering your true potential.
