R U Willing to fail?

Liz and I are working hard on our latest educational resource - Feet to the Fire. This is the first time that we are creating an audio program on CD from scratch. We are facing challenges due to our lack of experience and knowledge. But we are both persevering because we are willing to fail. We are going to create this resource, and market it, even as we find ways to improve the resource.

Alan Weiss says "Move when you are 80% done". We are getting close to 80% done with Feet to the Fire. We have recorded our scripts, our editing is in the final stages, our designer is working on the cover and we are getting ready to succeed - knowing that we may fail as well.

Think about it. How willing are you to fail? Are you willing to try, or paralyzed by the fear of failure?
