TLDRThe concept of 'Fail Forward' highlights the importance of embracing failure as a part of the learning and leadership journey.

    Okay, we continue on to the second practice, Fail Forward.
  • 00:00:11
    We’ve heard of the term ‘pay forward’, but this time, its Fail Forward.
  • 00:00:16
    There’s the word ‘fail’ in it.
  • 00:00:19
    Regarding to Expect the Best, its true we should be optimistic.
  • 00:00:25
    Because by being optimistic we can imagine success by success.
  • 00:00:30
    The problem is, can we be successful just by imagining success?
  • 00:00:36
    No! In certain situations, even if we are optimistic,
  • 00:00:41
    It is not a sign that everything will go according to our plan.
  • 00:00:46
    There are situations where we will fail even if we are being optimistic.
  • 00:00:51
    But a leader, the best leaders, have the tendency to realize the probability of failure.
  • 00:01:05
    They face it. They know that ‘failure’ is a thing.
  • 00:01:09
    They choose to embrace the possibilities of success, but also accept the risks of failures.
  • 00:01:24
    Because we will certainly face failure. Its just how we are going to try again.
  • 00:01:30
    Now regarding the matter, there is a word that I want to share with you, it is called, ‘resilience’.
  • 00:01:39
    Resilience does not mean we never fall, lose, or maybe cry over mistakes and failure.
  • 00:01:54
    Resilience is the ability to keep on trying to do.
  • 00:02:06
    Chasing dreams, expanding capacity,
  • 00:02:11
    The ability to accept all risks and keep on trying to chase your dreams..
  • 00:02:17
    ..even if you face failures again and again and again.
  • 00:02:20
    So, in a true leadership, leaders do not live or dwell in failure.
  • 00:02:30
    But they learn from failure, they grow in failure,
  • 00:02:35
    They took the lessons from failure to make themselves stronger, and they move forward in a better state than ever.
  • 00:02:44
    One example is a person you might know. He even got his own movie. His name is Steve Jobs.
  • 00:02:52
    He is the person who introduced iMac, iPhone, iPad, and all other ‘i’s, to us.
  • 00:03:03
    He is a remarkable man. But are we all aware that He failed over and over?
  • 00:03:12
    Once, he even got fired from the company he himself established.
  • 00:03:16
    But he says this:
  • 00:03:20
    Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes.
  • 00:03:25
    It is best to admit them quickly and get on with improving your other innovations
  • 00:03:34
    So he realize there are times during innovation process we make mistakes.
  • 00:03:38
    But, the important thing is to Fail Forward.
  • 00:03:43
    When we use our fall to gain several steps forward.
  • 00:03:49
    There are three tips regarding fail forward.
  • 00:03:54
    First, Be willing to recognize failure.
  • 00:04:00
    Our willingness to recognize the failure we are facing.
  • 00:04:05
    But don’t dwell in our failure. For example, when we hike a mountain.
  • 00:04:11
    When we make our own path to reach the summit, we find ourselves in front of a steep ravine
  • 00:04:19
    How do we get through a deep ravine?
  • 00:04:23
    Admit that we fail to make the path
  • 00:04:27
    We need to find a nother track, maybe it’s much further to reach the summit,
  • 00:04:32
    instead of forcing our way in the ravine to reach the top. The risk is bigger.
  • 00:04:38
    Its better for us to willingly admit, ‘this is failure’. We fail to make the path because there’s a ravine ahead.
  • 00:04:47
    So the First one is willing to recognize failure. Never feel embarrassed when you fail.
  • 00:04:53
    Second, look for lessons.
  • 00:04:58
    Often times, when we face failure we look for a scapegoat to justify our failure.
  • 00:05:07
    We need to have a mentality that says ‘its true I fail, what lesson do I learn from this failure?
  • 00:05:16
    With this lesson, what do I need to evaluate so that I can move forward?’
  • 00:05:22
    Third, open yourself up to feedback.
  • 00:05:28
    There are people around us who know what we do not know.
  • 00:05:34
    Like the hair whorls in the back of our head, we don’t know how it looks like. other people know.
  • 00:05:40
    Most of the time when we lead ourselves or an organization,
  • 00:05:46
    we tend to not realize that we need feedback from other people.
  • 00:05:50
    That’s why we need to be open to the feedbacks around us.
