Publisher's summary

Failure can ruin lives and families. There’s no denying it. It can destroy your health and obliterate your self-esteem. But it also holds a lot of value on the road to success.

Failure Rules! walks you through five essential rules to help you pull value from any failure—as proven by Andrew Thorp King’s personal stories of dramatic, cascading failures in business, relationships, art, and life. Journey through key failure lessons from a wildly diverse set of successful entrepreneurs, creatives, and authentics, including Winston Churchill, Sara Blakely, Henry Rollins, Andrew Yang, Toby Keith, Ryan Holiday, David Goggins, Glenn Beck, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Billie Jean King, Srinivas Rao, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, J.K. Rowling, and many, many more. The experience and immediate tangible results of failure suck. But if you follow the rules of failure—seeing beyond the mess and picking through the good stuff left in the rubble—you can move forward into success. Embrace the F-word and let hard times make you stronger. Because after it sucks, Failure Rules!

Most Self-Help Is For Sissies… Not Failure Rules!

This was an enjoyable book to listen to. There’s tons of practical advice that I will remember and put to use in daily life. The performance is good as well. I’d recommend this book… it’s an 11 out of 10.

Great advice from hard-learned life lessons

Books that have accompanying playlists are pretty damn good. Books that playlists with artists such as Black Flag, Hatebreed, and Johnny Cash have to be awesome. And Failure Rules! delivers. Andrew Thorpe King provides practical advice for everyone. King uses years of experience and hard-learned lessons to hone a list of five essential rules for almost every aspect of life. King makes no guarantees, but he does provide stories from his life and others, such as Henry Rollins and David Goggins. This is definitely worth a listen or a read!

Rules for Life

Great read that emphasizes the authors personal experiences of his darkest hour, turned to light. Also, acknowledges a diverse group of other public figures, artists, authentics etc. to illustrate how failures are a necessity to facilitate successes in life. The subject matter is very coherent and highly relatable to all.
