SUMMARY

To unlock the bold mindset in your everyday role, do the following.

Build a Strong Mind

To achieve greatness you have to fail greatly. Hollywood producer and director Jerry Zucker says: “Nobody else is paying as much attention to your failures as you are… To everyone else, it’s just a blip on the radar screen, so just move on.”120 Most overnight successes take about ten to fifteen years, and the journey is not a linear path but rather a series of ups and downs with a major dip along the way known as the “test”. A test could take the form of financial loss or one of your top performers walking out the door. Try building risk and resilience into your daily routine. MIT Media Lab’s Joi Ito tells leaders to focus on “Resilience instead of strength, which means you want to yield and allow failure and you bounce back instead of trying to resist failure.”121

At times, you might privately think you can’t go on. You must persist. Arianna Huffington, cofounder of the Huffington Post, says it best: “I failed, many times in my life. One failure that I always remember was when 36 publishers rejected my second book. Many years later, I watched Huff Post come alive to mixed reviews, including some very negative ones, like the reviewer who called the site ‘the equivalent of Gigli, Ishtar, and Heaven’s Gate rolled into one.’ But my mother used to tell me, ‘failure is not the opposite of success, it’s a stepping stone to success.’”122
