About the workshop
Never messed up? Never failed at something? That's strange, because none of us can avoid failures, mistakes, and errors. Failure usually brings sadness, regret, suppresses initiative, and kills creativity. However, if we can accept, tolerate, and work with failure, and if possible, even learn from it, we will rid ourselves of fear, new opportunities will open up, and our thinking will become more positive. Get inspired by the co-author of the book The Art of Failure, open up to your mistakes, and become more resilient.
