The Rise

Creativity, the Gift of Failure, and the Search for Mastery
Book • 2015
The Rise explores the inestimable value of often ignored ideas, the power of surrender for fortitude, the criticality of play for innovation, and the importance of grit and creative practice.

Using examples from athletics, science, and the arts, Sarah Lewis argues that many of the world’s greatest achievements have come from understanding the central importance of failure.

The book features narratives about figures such as Frederick Douglass, Samuel F.B.

Morse, Diane Arbus, and J.K.

Rowling, among others, to illustrate how failure can be a stepping stone to success.
