Fail to Win: Because of the Beatles
by Jeff Parry
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My Ratings 4.4/5
Synopsis
The Beatles. From his first exposure to Please Please Me at the age of nine, to bringing his London West End production of Let It Be: A Tribute to the Beatles to Broadway, their music has shaped Jeff Parry's career and life.
And what a life. Producing Flood Aid in support of the devastation caused by Calgary's 2013 flood, flying on Bill Cosby's private jet, mounting extravaganzas in Japan, dining with Randy Bachman in London—music and theatrical promotion have taken Jeff around the world.
Not without failures. But from every down cycle, Jeff has found ways to re-energize, spark new creativity, and surge back better than ever. Through the ups and downs of making millions and going broke, a key to Jeff's self-reinvention has always been the support of the enduring loves of his life: his wife, Karen, their two daughters, his hideaway in Windermere, and the peace that comes with exercise and healthy living.
Fail To Win: Because of the Beatles is an insider's look at the enigmatic world of big finance, overblown egos, and phenomenal risk—and reward—in the behind-the-scenes machinations of international rock music promotions. Fail to Win illustrates the importance of embracing failure in order to attain significant financial and personal success.
My Thoughts
I can't seem to find a better book then this one on how to deal with fear of failure.
When you’re ready to take the next step in your life, whether that means starting a new business or applying for college, one force will block your path like a brick wall: fear. It becomes nearly impossible to take a risk when the negative consequences of that choice swirl in your head: financial ruin, humiliation, or the sting of failure. What fear keeps you from seeing is that failure is the first step toward achievement. In Fail to Win: Because of the Beatles , Jeff Parry shows you how to shake off the paralyzing effects of fear , failure and move toward what you want most. He’ll equip you with the tools needed to dig up seeds of doubt and plant seeds of confidence, plus a framework to set attainable goals and track your progress. Your road to success will come with obstacles, but if you learn to push past them, you’ll find the best things in life waiting on the other side.
After receiving my copy of Fail to Win: Because of the Beatles , I read it straight through in one day because it touched on the roller coaster of emotions and experiences I have gone through as an entrepreneur, husband, and father. None that I would ever want to change.
With the title, Fail to Win: Because of the Beatles , one would think we need to accept failure and there is no hope when failure is at our door step. The book is the complete opposite and provides encouragement and actionable steps one needs to take in business or personally when failure happens. If you're looking to take your business to the next level, or start one, Fail to Win: Because of the Beatles is a must read. You will not be able to put the book down like I did.
This book shows that it is possible to weather the storm and how to prepare your life for whatever the future holds. I can’t recommend it enough if you are prepping for life changing events.
Highly Recommended!
