        The Challenges and Benefits of Failing Forward

        "I have not failed. I have just found 10,000 ways that don't work." - Thomas Edison.

        At Acton Academy, we celebrate failures. We believe that only through trial and error can you learn something new. During my presentation, we’ll discuss the importance of failure, how to fail properly, and how a growth mindset can turn the fear of failure into an asset for success. You’re capable of far more than you realize.
