Overview

"""Every adversity, every failure, every heartbreak carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit.""-Napoleon HillIf you haven't failed, then you aren't trying hard enough. Not just the little failures either-the big ones. The failures that push you to the edge of insanity and potentially put your entire career in jeopardy. The failures that knock you to the ground and won't let you back up without fighting for your life. The failures that force you to ask better questions, to learn from your mistakes, and to commit to becoming a better person. These are the failures that plant the seeds of greatness. Everything Ari Rastegar has achieved was forged through failure. From delivering pizzas at DoubleDave's to his rise as real estate's ""Oracle of Austin"" (Forbes)-and every step (and misstep) in between-Ari owes his success not to what he did right but to what he did wrong. In The Gift of Failure, Ari pulls back the curtain on his darkest moments-revealing the hard-earned lessons from his struggles, showing why prosperity in any enterprise is linked to prosperity in life. Full of Ari's trademark wit, energy, compassion, and candor, this book will help you see failure in an entirely new way."
