27A – Interview with Mark Anshell, MTSU, In Praise of Failure

A discussion with Mark Anshell, Professor of Health & Human
Performance at Middle Tennessee State University and author of
the new book: “In Praise of Failure in Sport: The Value of
Overcoming Mistakes to Achieve Optimal Performance Success”. We
discuss why we need to change our conception of failure, the
importance of failing for success in sports, fear of failure,
using exercise as punishment, and how coaches can create
environments that embrace failure.
