Summary
This episode is part 2 of a 2-episode series where we really dive into the subject fear plays in building a successful business. In part 1 we talked about what fear actually is and how you can actually change your thoughts actually perpetuate and feed that fear. If you haven't listened to part 1, episode 111, see the link to it below!
In this pod episode, we dig farther into how exactly fear can be used to actually BUILD your business and how to adopting a healthier attitude towards failure is the key to unlocking success in your business and in your life.
The only way to get 'unstuck' in your business is to adopt a new mindset about failure
It is ingrained in us during childhood that failure is a horribly bad thing to avoid. We also think that two paths exist: one is a path towards success and the other is a path that leads us to failure.
However, the reality is that only ONE PATH EXISTS! Success and Failure are merely different steps or stages along the same path! You literally have to fail your way to success every single day. Failure is unavoidable on your way to success! We must shift our mindsets to understand this and accept it so that as we do meet failure during our journey, we can mentally check it off as a step in the process and move on!
Join me in this episode as I talk about my personal experience with failure, the biggest shift I had to make when it comes to failure, how to adopt a new mindset to the 'NO's' in your business, and my action plans for you to increase your failure threshold.

| 0:00.0 | Hey Bob here and welcome back to the Your Virtual Upline Podcast where we give Network |
| 0:12.4 | marketers the mindset, strategies, and skills that you need |
| 0:17.2 | to build a business and life of your dreams. Welcome to episode 112, The Gift of Failure. This episode today is going to be a follow-up, |
| 0:28.4 | kind of a part two to the episode that we did last week and so if you got any value out of the last episode |
| 0:36.1 | wait until you hear this one but hey listen before I get into the meat and potatoes of today's message. I do want to kind of discuss the |
| 0:46.3 | proverbial elephant in the room so to speak. Some of you might be a little shocked |
| 0:51.4 | because the intro for the show has changed. Yes, it's taken |
| 0:57.0 | a hundred and eleven episodes, but I've finally decided to update the intro and the music and unfortunately you I finally |
| 1:04.4 | to update the intro and the music and unfortunately you're gonna have to stare at my face when you're listening |
| 1:08.9 | we change the cover heart of the show as well so hopefully we don't have too much of a revolt. I have a |
| 1:15.6 | sneaky suspicion though that if you're anything like me most of you probably |
| 1:20.1 | fast forward through the music part anyway I know that I find myself doing that. |
| 1:25.1 | I just had this thought. I said, well, if I do this on all the podcasts that I listen to, |
| 1:30.0 | then my listeners probably do that for the most part so why not shorten it up and just make it easier to get into the meat and potatoes of the show so that's why we did that you know I wanted to say something I was like should I say something but I just sometimes I feel like it's weird |
| 1:43.2 | when people completely change their branding of their podcast and they just don't say |
| 1:47.2 | anything so I said hey look let me talk about it yeah I wanted to do a little bit of |
| 1:51.2 | refresh so we hope you love the new intro, but also wanted to go back to, you know, the branding and positioning of me as your virtual upline, and we did a little bit of a cover art redesign, so hopefully like that as well and hey look if you like it let us know |
| 2:05.4 | if you like the new intro let us know as well but this is going to be how we're going to be moving forward but anyway let's get into the message for today, the gift of failure. |
| 2:16.2 | This is going to be a really, really powerful message. I promise you, you know, last |
| 2:21.0 | week we talked about overcoming the fear of prospecting and |
| 2:25.3 | we dove deep into exactly what fear is right fear is fear is just |
| 2:31.6 | imagining a negative outcome for an action that you haven't taken yet. |
