Your life should be like a novel—here’s why | Jason Houston | TEDxDoral

What if your life unfolded like a beautifully-written novel? As unbelievable as that sounds, that's exactly what happens. Whether you've been laid off during a recession, been asked to resign, worked in a company that folded, gone broke, been evicted, survived being homeless, lived your greatest passion just to have it torn from you, or stared death in the face for months as it nearly consumed you, one day you'll be grateful for every setback... I know because I've experienced all the above. What you'll learn is that the path to success is the one of relentless failure. It's called "The Novel Effect." Jason Houston grew up in a Tennessee town so small that the town hall building shared space with an ice cream shop and a gas station. Since then he has been a robotics engineer, a ballroom dancer, a consultant, and a even builder. Through each twist and turn he learned that failure isn't the opposite of success but instead the only path to it. He will testitfy to how life's setbacks, "the worst things that have ever happened TO YOU," are setups for the greatest chapters of our lives, "the best things that ever happened FOR YOU." This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
