  • Les vertus de l'échec

    Creator

    Pépin, Charles

    Abstract

    Un petit traité de sagesse qui nous met sur la voie d'une authentique réussite. Et si nous changions de regard sur l'échec ? En France, échouer est mal perçu. Nous y voyons une faiblesse, une faute, et non un gage d'audace et d'expérience. Pourtant, les succès viennent rarement sans accroc. Charles de Gaulle, Rafael Nadal, Steve Jobs, Thomas Edison, J.K. Rowling ou Barbara ont tous essuyé des revers cuisants avant de s'accomplir.
