Book description

â Failure is an inevitable part of the human journey,â says award-winning television and radio broadcaster and New York Times best-selling author Tavis Smiley. Smiley steps from behind the curtain of success to share intimate stories of his missteps, misdeeds, and often highly publicized miscalculations in Fail Up: 20 Lessons On Building Success From Failure. These instances of perceived â failuresâ were, in fact, â lessonsâ that shaped the principles and practices that now guide his life. Readers will find a kinship in Smileyâ s humanness that inspires, informs, and reminds us of our ability to â fail upâ in the face of lifeâ s inevitable setbacks. The year-long celebration of Smileyâ s 20th year anniversary in broadcasting will feature the Fail Up book tour.
