(1:29) I've written about the importance of embracing failure to succeed. Fear of failure keeps you from reaching outside your comfort zone to the place where success lives.(1:24) I gathered some of my favorite quotes on the subject. They have inspired me over the years and I hope they will inspire you.
(1:18) "I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times I've been trusted to take the game's winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that's why I succeed." - Michael Jordan, NBA Hall of Fame.
(1:09) "A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new." - Albert Einstein.

(0:51) "Do not be embarrassed by your failures, learn from them and start again." - Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin Group.
(0:47) "It's hard to beat a person who never gives up." - Babe Ruth, Major League Baseball Hall of Fame.

(0:30) "It doesn't matter how many times you fail. It doesn't matter how many times you almost get it right. No one is going to know or care about your failures, and neither should you.

Then everyone can tell you how lucky you are." - Mark Cuban, Chairman of AXS TV, Owner of Landmark Theaters.

(0:15) And of course every boater's favorite:
(0:13) "Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream, Discover." - Mark Twain.
