“God, I\u2019m 51 years old and I spent 30 years of my life doing things I didn\u2019t want to do. The things you do to please other people! I said to myself, Well now I\u2019m just going to have a good time. That was the most freeing thing.”<\/h3>\n

-Alec Baldwin in this month’s Wired Magazine <\/a>in an article titled “Stay in the Game: The\u00a0Fall and Rise of Alec Baldwin” where he speaks about his failures, his TV comeback, and how he looks forward to failing again.<\/p>\n

I am a big fan of Wired and this month’s issue does not disappoint.<\/p>\n

There’s a picture of Alec Baldwin on the cover in a fighting pose and a big black box that says “Fail. Why Losing Big Can Be a Winning Strategy”.<\/p>\n

Along with Mr. Baldwin-Mike Tyson, Meg Whitman, and Bill Clinton talk candidly about some of their biggest failures and most importantly what they’ve learned from them.<\/p>\n

As I mentioned in my earlier post Fail Harder<\/a>, I’m also a big fan of failure. Not that I enjoy falling on my face. But I do think true innovation takes risk. And failure is a sure sign that you are taking risks.<\/p>\n

What have you learned from failure?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
