Manage episode 515972809 series 3623085
Most people see failure as the end. Dave and Jacq Conway see it as the beginning.
In this powerful episode of The 30-Day Year Podcast, Dave shares how failure became his greatest teacher… from flopping on camera to getting crushed at the pool hall. Together, he and Jacq unpack how persistence, desire, and daily self-reflection can turn setbacks into stepping stones.
If you've ever felt defeated by rejection or ready to give up on your goals, this inspiring conversation will show you how to learn from failure and use it as fuel for growth!
You'll discover:
- Why failing is actually just valuable feedback, not defeat…
- How to build daily, burning desire that keeps you going through difficult times!
- The powerful "reflection question" that leads to mastery…
- How small wins prove you're on the right path…
- The secret to persistence when nothing's working…
And much more!
If you're failing right now, don't despair… you're closer to success than you think!
