Marianna's Story

When I was asked to take part in the Failing Forward project I didn’t know what I was getting myself into. At first I didn't know what to do. I didn’t understand the name of the project or what it was about.

I began to think that I shouldn’t be in the programme, that it wasn’t for me. But during the week, after taking part in some of the meetings and training, I understood that,

"Fail Forward isn’t just for people that have had a hard time at home or have made some big mistakes in life, it is for everybody."

You learn how to get your saboteurs off your shoulder,

which is good because the saboteur tells you to stay in your comfort zone and tell you that you can’t achieve.

You learn more about you, and most of all...

"...You learn that it is okay to fail - because you can’t do something in life without failing in some part."

Like I said the Failing Forward project is for everybody, so go out of your comfort zone and control your world!
