“Winning means being unafraid to lose”
Fran Tarkenton

“Just about everybody sees desperation as a negative. The emotional state of the truly pathetic, it seems to most something to be shed and shunned. But not to me. I embraced my desperation, let it drive me, pushing me in directions I never thought of before—like developing a running game and doing everything I could to help my teammates perform at their highest levels.”
Fran Tarkenton, The Power of Failure: Succeeding in the Age of Innovation

“As I see it now—and as I saw it back then—you learn the most about career, life, business, and yourself by taking every opportunity to move outside of your comfort zone. By definition, the comfortable and the familiar have nothing new to teach you. The most successful people in life and business are innovators. By definition, innovators need to be uncomfortable.”
Fran Tarkenton, The Power of Failure: Succeeding in the Age of Innovation
