Falling Down Doesn't Mean You Chose Wrong | Ep. 667

Falling Down Isn’t Evidence You Chose the Wrong Path On the Growth Notes Podcast, Frazier shares a Tuesday growth message about “creating evidence” and how setbacks can distort what we believe about ourselves and our path. He explains there are external forms of evidence—actions, activities, and outcomes that show progress—and internal evidence we search for when challenges hit. Frazier admits he’s mistaken a bad result for a final answer, but reframes obstacles as learning moments that provide information about strategy, execution, preparation, pace, and unrealistic expectations. He encourages listeners not to abandon their goals too quickly and to ask whether the idea failed or the approach failed, whether they were wrong or early, and whether they need a new direction or better preparation. Falling down, he emphasizes, isn’t proof you chose the wrong path—sometimes discomfort is evidence you chose the right one.
