I get asked quite often, “How can I build a recession-proof career?”
And I am always left wondering, “Is it possible to have such a recession proof career?”
What if we asked a different question: Is it possible to walk without ever falling?
Then how is it possible to build a career without creating space for failures?
“It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all, in which case you have failed by default.” — JK RowlingIt is through the process of falling, that we learn the art of walking.
It is through the process of failing, that we learn the art of growing.
Our thoughts keep getting better of us. However, if we sneak peak at the track record of people whom we define as ‘successful’, there has almost always been the process of trying, failing loudly, trying again.. and gradually growing every step of the way.
Gist lies in intentionally embracing the joy through it all.
