The practice for Failure Resume

Get past the voice
that holds you back.


Before you create, before you put yourself out there, your failure resume speaks first. The practice is to write it down.

Read Failure Resume, then do the work. The book makes the argument. The Companion Guide turns it into a practice — the worksheet for writing your own failure resume, the prompts, and the weekly cadence. Built to be used together — buy them as a pair.

  The practice

I

Notice the voice

The hesitation. The flinch at the start of something. The story about why this time will not work. That voice is your failure resume talking. Catch it speaking.

II

Write it down

Get it out of your head and onto paper. What failure is the voice naming? What fear is it carrying? Externalize what has been internal.

III

Reframe

On paper the event separates from the person. The situation, not the identity. A growth moment, not a verdict on who you are.
