Book excerpt: Failure is something none of us like to experience, but in Dare to Win, Jeff Chegwin and Carmela DiClemente explain that mistakes are not only good for us, they can actually lead to huge successes. If you look at the most inspirational innovators, athletes and icons throughout history, they all share a common belief – they simply do not entertain the notion of failure as a bad thing. In Dare to Win you’ll read some real life lessons, learnt by the most talented and successful people in the world. From Steve Jobs to Beyonce, Simon Cowell, Michael Jordan, Einstein, JK Rowling, Zaha Hadid, Arnold Schwarzenegger and more, all these superstars have had to confront failure. Just been sacked? It could be the best thing that’s ever happened to you. Keep getting your ideas knocked back at work? Rethink your approach. Told with humour and compassion, these are stories to inspire us all to learn from our mistakes.
