1. ~it’s okay to make a mistake. Because you know
what? The Earth doesn’t stop spinning just because you made a mistake. In fact,
mistakes are more useful than success in life. I’ve never learned anything from
making a success happen. It’s almost . . . too easy. Mistakes, on the other
hand, point out your fallibility and, more important, you can learn and improve
from them. P 169

TURIA PITT is one of Australia’s most admired
and widely recognized figures. In 2011 at age 24, Turia was an ex-model fitness
junkie and successful mining engineer when she was caught in a freak firestorm
while competing in a 100 km ultramarathon in Western Australia. She was
choppered out of the remote desert, barely alive and suffering from full
thickness burns to 64 percent of her body. Surviving against overwhelming odds,
Turia came back stronger than ever. Turia completed the Ironman World
Championship in Kona, Hawaii, in late 2016 and later wrote her memoir
Everything to Live For: The Inspirational Story of Turia Pitt. Her popular TEDx
Talk, “Unmask Your Potential,” details her incredible story of triumph over
adversity.
