I grew up in a house where my father encouraged my brother and me

I grew up in a house where my father encouraged my brother and me to fail. I specifically remember coming home and saying, Dad, Dad, I tried out for this or that and I was horrible, and he would high-five me and say, Way to go. – Sara Blakely

My dad encouraged us to fail. Growing up, he would ask us what we failed at that week. If we didnt have something, he would be disappointed. It changed my mindset at an early age that failure is not the outcome, failure is not trying. Dont be afraid to fail. – Sara Blakely
