Avish Parashar – “It’s Okay To Fail”

Avish Parashar is an improv comedian, public speaker and author. His latest book is titled “Say Yes, And”, which discusses the importance of discovering new things and being more open minded by answering “Yes, And” instead of “Yes, But”. We’ve previously posted a summary and review of the key points made in his book – you can read it here.

In this video for TDTYTIS he talks about the importance of being willing to fail so that you can learn. This is such an important lesson. If we aren’t willing to fail, we’ll never take risks, and as a result never learn or reap large rewards from what we do.

TDTYTIS is an ever-growing library of life lessons and advice.

As each generation grows up, individuals will make mistakes and learn a huge amount. But they don't stop to pass the lessons that they've learned onto younger generations. Therefore, each generation grows up making the same mistakes and using up time that they could be using creatively.

The videos and articles here on TDTYTIS will allow you to learn from the combined knowledge and experience of other generations, so that you can be more effective in whatever you do in life.
