Book PresentationFail Fast, Fail Often by Ryan Babineaux and John Krumboltz
Book Abstract
Happy and successful people tend to spend less time planning and more time acting than average people. They get out into the world, try new things, make mistakes and fail at first and in doing so, they lay the foundation for future successes. Not only do they learn what will work by first finding out for themselves what does not but they also benefit from unexpected experiences and opportunities.
It's a paradox but the more you lose in the early stages, the more you tend to win over the long haul. Take the plunge. Get into action. Rather than being discouraged by your early failures, take heart. The best way to learn what will work in the future is to find out for yourself what doesn't work today.
Fail fast. Fail often. Fail your way forward.
“The more you fail, the more you will live, and you deserve a wonderful life! Starting today, set aside five minutes a day to do what you love. Find something you have been meaning to do and give yourself permission to do it badly right away. Successful people have a knack for performing poorly. Find a way today to step outside of your usual haunts, habits, and thinking patterns to experience new possibilities. Take a small, immediate step related to your interests or aspirations. The best way to gain confidence and improve your mood is to take action, even though you're not feeling up to it. Now it's time for you to get out there and fail as quickly as you possibly can. And then fail again.”
- Ryan Babineaux and John Krumboltz

Summary of Fail Fast, Fail Often (Ryan Babineaux and John Krumboltz)
1. Do more of what you consider fun so you're happy
Don't assume you will only have fun when you meet some arbitrary criteria. Get out and have some fun today and do that over and over. This is the way to be happy.
Lots of people have a “not yet” view of life – they have not yet given themselves permission to have fun. Instead, they tell themselves they will really live life and have fun:
When they become millionaires.When they lose weight and become skinny.When their business meets some revenue target.The problem with this is by having a “not yet” perspective, you focus on the shortcomings of your life rather than the opportunities to move forward which already lie right in front of you. The “not yet” mindset also makes change costly and unpleasant rather than fun and inspiring.
“We have found the best way to empower people to transform their lives is not by helping them to resolve their problems, but by encouraging them to pursue what they enjoy. No matter how trapped you may feel in your current life, there are positive actions you can take and new experiences to be had.”
- Ryan Babineaux and John Krumboltz
