The Truth About Bravery in Entrepreneurship: Normalize Failure with Roei Yellin

Most people think that athleticism is all about competitiveness, pushing yourself to the limits, and ultimately trying to win. But the key quality that you develop as an athlete is to stand on the start line. To be brave enough to do something that you know that you might lose is a more valuable quality for an entrepreneur than being competitive. That’s exactly what Roei Yellin, this week's guest teaches us in today’s episode.
