Dare to be Great
Wednesday, May 16th, 2007
The ETL series has been consistently good, and the recent lectures have continued the tradition.
A question posed by Jackie Speier, a former senator, really got me thinking:
What would you do if you knew you could not fail?
The thing that struck me was that I have no easy answer for this question.
I don’t know.
Fortunately, it is the kind of question that if you spend time thinking of an answer, you’re getting somewhere. Even without an answer, the path towards an answer is constructive.
So, what would you do if you knew you could not fail?

Hey Geoff! Great blog….got me thinking, what would I do if I knew I could not fail?
Well I would definately try more things and not be set back by the fear of failure…I would probably start off with small stuff like diving into a swimming pool (yes, I always manage to stuff that up!)
Then I would move onto more exciting things like opening up a club - there would be big initial capital investment, the fact that I knew it would not fail would mean that I wouldn’t lose all my money
