Reseña del editor

Let's face it, We are all going to fail. Sometimes. There are few things more certain in life. Quite frankly, there are times when your best is just not good enough. For every winner, there must inevitably be a host of people who were pipped to the post. The law of averages alone would suggest that one of them is going to be you, at least once in your life. This is the sad but certain truth that we must all learn. But is it such a sad truth after all? It is strange that we all seem to have such difficulty learning this simply fact. Every day, this integral part of life is looked upon with shame and sadness, with feelings of embarrassment and inadequacy, with several bottles of scotch and with crying on stairs. Instead, what we ought to be doing is embracing our failure. Only then can we explore our fullest potential to fail, and so achieve the greatest part of our humanity. This book teaches you how to come to terms with yourself as the miserable failure that you undoubtedly are, and how to enjoy yourself because of, rather than in spite of, your short-comings and misdeeds.

Biografía del autor

Ben Byram-Wigfield has been seeking out failure since he attempted to make his first footsteps as an infant, and it's all gone downhill from there. Despite having the advantages of education and breeding, he has managed to avoid fulfilling any potential he may once have had. He remains quite proud of the fact that he has never got a job from an interview in the face of competition. He lives in Seclusion, a small town in the West Midlands.
