What would you attempt if you knew you would get a positive return on the failures you encounter? In this episode, John is sharing a lesson on how you can powerfully shift your perspective on failure in your life and leadership!

After his lesson, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow sit down and give you practical application for what John has shared.

Key takeaways:

Success and failure belong together.

On good misses, I make adjustments. On bad misses, I make excuses.

There are no shortcuts to success.
