When Learning the Hard Way is a Strength – with Anthony James - EP01
27m · PublishedOn the surface, learning things the hard way may seem like a character flaw. But what if that willingness to try and fail and figure it out along the way is actually a great strength? What if the ability to learn from our mistakes is much more important than the mistakes themselves?
Anthony James is the Founder and CEO of Linux Academy, the #1 learn-by-doing cloud training platform. In the last three years before Linux was acquired by acloud.guru, it grew from a $5.2M annual run rate in 2017 to $12.3M in 2018 and $21.3M in 2019, earning the top spot on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing education companies in the US. Today, Anthony is helping others achieve their goals as an angel investor. And he also happens to be my brother.
On this episode of Certainly Can, Anthony joins me to explain why our response to failure is more important than the failure itself, exploring the benefit to his learn-the-hard-way approach to trying new things. He reflects on how standing firm in his values and doing work he is passionate about contribute to his continued success. Listen in for Anthony’s insight around what it really means to ‘fail fast’ and learn how YOU can leverage your mistakes to do better the next time around!
