Editorial Review:
The major difference between achieving people and average people is their perception of and response to failure. John C. Maxwell takes a closer look at failure--and reveals that the secret of moving beyond failure is to use it as a lesson and a stepping-stone. He covers the top reasons people fail and shows how to master fear instead of being mastered by it. Readers will discover that positive benefits can accompany negative experiences--if you have the right attitude. Chock full of action suggestions and real-life stores, Failing Forward is a strategic guide that will help men and women move beyond mistakes to fulfill their potential and achieve success.

Failing Forward  2008-10-05
John Maxwell does a great job again. John is letting you know you need to make mistakes in order to make progress...at least you better be.
Excellent Book 2008-09-11
I got this book from my Uncle's recommendation.
Loved it and couldn't put it down. He just inspires you more and more with great stories of people who kept failing and made great successes of themselves.
Basically you have to fail to succeed.
If you are a perfectionist this is the perfect book for you!!
What a great Resource 2008-08-10
This was a great read and helps better understand the importance of taking every situation and turning it into a positive learning experience.
Good premise, strong beginning and ending, but weak in the middle  2008-08-06
The idea behind this book is very original and relevant. We all make mistakes and the exploration of how to learn from those and improve ourselves is a noble task. Maxwell begins well with insightful thoughts on what failure is and is not, how success is born out of failure and how to reframe our perception of our failures. Then the book quickly turns to largely extraneous stories and weak supporting points. The book drags on in this vein for some time. It is not until near the end that things pick back up again. The book ends on a strong note, with practical suggestions of how to "fail forward." This book is worth reading, though be prepared to do some skimming in the middle sections.
