Episode 54: Failure Tolerance - Overcome Pornography for Good

Episode 54: Failure Tolerance

January 24, 20222 min read

For most of us, we’ve grown up with the message that failure in any capacity is to be avoided at all costs. We’re taught that failure is what keeps us from succeeding, so what I’m offering to you this week might be a little brain-scrambling, but stick with me.

In this episode, I’m inviting you to be willing to fail over and over again. The truth is that your success at quitting porn is literally built on your ability to fail and get back up to try again. The more tolerance you have for failure and slip-ups, the quicker you’ll succeed at overcoming the habit, and I’m showing you why this week. 

Tune in this week to discover what failure tolerance means, and why it’s the key to success in any area of your life. I’m showing you what tends to happen when you resist and try to avoid failure, and why my clients who are willing to fail are the quickest to turn their lives around. 

I have amazing news. If you want to take the work I’m sharing on the podcast deeper, I’m running a masterclass called How to Quit Viewing Pornography Even if You’ve Tried in the Past, and it is 100% free! All you have to do is sign up here and I will see you there.

  • What the principle of failure tolerance means.

  • Why the higher your failure tolerance, the quicker and more you will succeed.

  • How this concept applies to pornography.

  • The detriments of not being willing to fail.
