Those C of us fortunate enough to still be alive have experienced failures of friendships, marriages, businesses, careers and projects, and so many have lost their life’s work. COVID-19 is one of the greatest adversities humanity has faced in decades. A lot is riding on our collective response to COVID-19: Does it make us weaker, have no impact or make us stronger? In order for COVID-19 to make us stronger, we must have total and utter faith that the failures and adversity caused by COVID-19 are the seeds of an even greater advantage . That faith is hard to come by in times of great adversity—when your marriage, business, career and/or life’s work has been destroyed by forces beyond your control . But remember, you can control your thoughts, and your thoughts determine whether or not these adversities make you weaker, have no impact or make you stronger . What is the mindset that permits you to see this advantage, believe this advantage, and achieve this advantage, despite the trauma and adversity you have experienced? What are the steps you can take to achieve this mindset? This book will help you turn any adversity, failure, heartbreak or trauma into an even greater advantage . I have had a few failures and adversities of my own . I’ve been divorced, indicted, convicted and have failed at numerous 2 | Failing Early and Failing Often Part One: Start Failing, Keep Failing different business ventures. I am currently facing a lengthy prison sentence . Yes, I am potentially going to prison for asking for “fair and rigorous regulation” from an “unbiased regulator .” The federal government thinks I am a criminal, despite the fact I said on tape numerous times (not knowing I was being recorded) that everything we do must be fully compliant with the law . I believe I’ve made every mistake there is to make in business at least twice . I had a golf ball-sized brain tumor removed, which means I am half deaf and had to learn to walk again . I’ve lost hundreds of millions of dollars on failed investments . I am a humble student of the “School of Hard Knocks,” and I am hoping to share a few lessons with you here in overcoming adversity—and turning it into an even greater advantage . I find the most powerful lesson in navigating failure and adversity comes from Napoleon Hill, who wrote almost a 100 years ago that “every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit.” A warning before we start: This book is not going to give you the answers . Rather, this book will suggest a path that will lead to learning and wisdom through trial, error and failure . Simply reading this book will not give you this knowledge; you must take the material in this book and turn it into daily action and habits that will ultimately form your character after many years of repetitive effort. Nothing short of that will last . Nothing short of that will ultimately produce the greater advantage from your adversity . Adversity will only make you stronger if you put the hard-earned lessons into action every day for the rest of your life . If you How to Turn Your Adversity Into Advantage | 3 Part One: Start Failing, Keep Failing fail to put your newfound wisdom to work with new goals and objectives, you have wasted the experience . As Napoleon Hill says, “KNOWLEDGE will not attract money, unless it is organized, and intelligently directed, through practical PLANS OF ACTION, to the DEFINITE END of accumulation of money . Lack of understanding of this fact has been the source of confusion to millions of people who falsely believe that ‘knowledge is power .’ It is nothing of the sort! Knowledge is only potential power . It becomes power only when, and if, it is organized into definite plans of action, and directed to a definite end.” Regardless of where you might ultimately find your advantage— in business, your career, art, sports or your community— don’t expect results quickly . Turning adversity into advantage can take years . But when the advantage does appear—and appear it will if you persist long enough— you will be overwhelmed by its power and wonder where it has been all these years . I was recently sentenced to more than seven years in prison for something all my advisors agreed “there was nothing wrong with .” It could take the better part of the coming decade to realize the full advantage from this adversity . But the advantage is there, and when it emerges, it will be more powerful than ever . Along the way, you will learn you must always be a student . The day you stop asking questions, relax and rest on your accomplishments is the day you start dying . Relaxations are dangerous in any field, from poetry to plumbing to politics. And remember, I am not the teacher here . I am merely sharing my experiences as a fellow student . Your life experiences will 4 | Failing Early and Failing Often Part One: Start Failing, Keep Failing teach you . This book will simply encourage you to have those experiences in the first place. We know failure is part of success—we have all seen the posters and put the quotes above our desks . Nevertheless, most of us think of failure as, well, a failure, and we do everything we can to avoid it . In society, education and business, failure is a humiliating negative . Failing a class, putting on weight, getting wait-listed, dropping out, getting divorced, going bankrupt, being convicted, being sent to prison . all are considered failures in today’s society, when, in truth, these experiences can be the stepping stones for later, greater success in life. To quote the film based on the C.S. Lewis book Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010), “Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny .” We are often asked to dream of success, to imagine what life will look like when we win .

In asserting a role as protector of nations emerging from the postwar partitions, the League of Nations helped neutralize local struggles for independence.3 The conceptual framework of “transformative occupation” in the modern Middle East illuminates the techniques of foreign rule within these wider imperial histories while linking them to ambitious programs of development.4 Whether in the name of civilization or modernity, whether by a colonial or mandated power, imposing the practices of Western governance on “backward” peoples and space characterized trans- formative occupation regimes.5 In this essay, I examine how a particular practice within the political and diplomatic repertoire of transformative occupation—the promotion of local autonomy—was successfully deployed in the Israeli-Palestinian arena.

RThe school doesn’t have a caf- eteria or an auditorium. Students don’t have a gym or sports facilities, though students can still participate in athletic activities at a neighbor- ing park. The school building itself on Glenwood Avenue is fairly dat- ed; it certainly isn’t what someone would call a 21st-century, state-of- the-art facility. Yet despite all real or perceived — or esthetic — shortcomings, stu- dents at Raleigh Charter are per- forming better than most students in the state. Supporters of school choice say it’s that choice that empowers par- ents to pick the best place for their children to attend school.
