Failing Forward by John C. Maxwell


John C. Maxwell book “Failing Forward” helps to redefine failure and success, how to change your mind set regarding failure, embracing failure to your advantage and how to increase your odd s for success. As most of Maxwell’s books it content is clear and easy to read.

With this book you can tell he did reach out to all of his readers for their options regarding failure. Some examples like his other books are fine but this book is packed with quotes and stories of people who have sent him their life experiences. A few would have been fine but Maxwell included way too many. It really took away from the focus of the book. Don’t get me wrong the content of the book regarding failure is great material and very useful. The book would have sent a stronger and more helpful message had he kept a similar format as some of his other books and focused less on trying to include everyone’s story. People read his books to learn and improve, less stories and more content.
