31. How to Avoid Failure with Craig Shoemaker

While comedian Craig Shoemaker has been very successful—winning an American Comedy Award, writing, producing and starring in two Universal feature films, landing on IMDB’s list of 100 top comics—finding success isn’t how he’s avoided failure.

By his own admission, he’s failed over and over again. But he now has a system for changing perspective to the point that failure doesn’t even register. He employs it in his coaching practice, his events, his stand-up specials and everything else he does.

Listen in on this episode for that system as well as snippets on overcoming his dad leaving when he was born, feeling like a horrible failure on the biggest night of his career, dealing with an ex who’s been brainwashed and so much more.
