Today’s Miracle Moment Is About How Being Willing to Fail Can Get You in the Miracle Zone…
Often we think of failure as the last thing we want to experience. The word failure can bring up feelings of shame, missed opportunities, and loss.
We’re here to tell you embracing failure is exactly what can get you in the Miracle Zone!
One thing that some of the most successful people have in common is that they’ve been willing to fail along the way.
For example, we’re all familiar with the Harry Potter series. These bestselling books have sold 500 million copies and they’ve been made into Hollywood blockbusters. The author of these books, JK Rowling, had to go through a lot of failure without knowing that any of this success would ever happen.
Back in 1994, J.K. Rowling was a single, struggling mom who’d just gotten a divorce and was on government aid in order to make ends meet and feed her baby. When she was trying to get a publisher for her book, Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone, she had to manually type out each version on an old-school typewriter to send to publishers because she couldn’t afford the cost of a computer or of photocopying it.
Once she started putting her book out to publishers, it was rejected dozens of times.
Finally, a small publishing company gave it a second chance after the CEO’s young daughter read it and loved it. Today, J.K. Rowling characters and stories are embedded in our pop culture and beloved around the world. She has a net worth of $1 billion dollars and she has made many charitable donations and used her success for the greater good.
Two other examples of successful people who have been willing to fail along the way are the creators of the Chicken Soup for the Soul books and Marci’s co-authors, Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen. As they were trying to get their first Chicken Soup for the Soul book published, Jack and Mark were turned down by 143 publishers. But they kept going because they knew this book had to be out there.
Because they persisted and didn’t give up, they made it to the 144th publisher, and that’s who took a chance to publish the book.
The rest is history.
JK Rowling, Jack Canfield, and Mark Victor Hansen each experienced failure along the way without knowing what could possibly ever happen. They were successful because they viewed failure not as an end-point, but just one stop on the path towards their success.
Here’s a physical practice you can do to support you to keep going — even when you hit roadblocks or failures along the way:
Imagine the feeling you experience in your body when you’re inspired. This is usually an uplifting feeling.
Now, imagine the feeling you get when you feel shut down or hit a roadblock. In this case, you might feel a pit in your stomach and a heaviness. Pay attention to how that feels.
The next time you experience this pit-in-your-stomach heavy feeling, allow yourself to feel the feeling instead of pushing it away or running from it. By sitting and breathing with it, you will allow it to disperse and dissipate.
As it releases, you will feel more spaciousness and more of the inspired, uplifting feeling that supports you to keep moving towards your goals.
We encourage you to follow your inspiration and stay committed to the success you’re working towards. See any roadblocks or “failures” simply as checkpoints along the way.
“Never wait in expectation of perfection or you’ll wait forever. Do the best you can with what you’ve got, and be one of those who dared rather than those who merely dream.” — J.K. Rowling
Thank you for this. I have had to put my work with empaths and sensitives on the back burner so I can support myself. I feel a deep sadness yet an excitement even for the job that I will be starting. It is not my dream, but just a step to healing those things that have kept me sidelined from my miracles.
Oh my goodness, I so needed to hear this today. I was feeling so down and by embracing that feeling instead of resisting it, the effervescent feeling started bubbling up spontaneously. And I can take a look at it and just smile instead of feeling doom and gloom. Thank you 🙂
Thanks so much for this–needed it today! Felt the feeling going away–watched the little tendrils of heaviness just floating.
So grateful to you both for this year of miracles!
Thank you for the valuable tips.
With 2 new business oppotunities started,there is still a hitch to take off fully.
Efforts are made to see why we cannot reach the targeted people. We havent lost hope, but struggling to reach out.
Thank you so much for this Sue and Marci!
This exercise is so powerful!
And even more powerful energetically for me after one whole year of practicing the Energy Codes work because I have consciously activated my central channel and am embodying as Spirit more each day! These practices can work in an instant and can also be used as a way to, as Sue says, carve a pathway of new nuerocircuitry! I am forever grateful ❤️ And Marci I appreciate that you founded and maintain this year of miracles! The coaching in the inner Circle had given me support to transform my life!
And the weekly reminders help keep me focused on possibility and making it reality in my life❣️ Gracias mujers por su trabajas en el mundo!
keep the focus on the goal, accept, recognize, change, optimize , try again…
I just sucked for a computer scam today. I gave up way to much information and am now in the process of making repairs. Sitting with that yucky feeling and hoping for the effervescence to break through. 😬
Thank you so much Marci and Dr. Sue; this video as always is so inspirational and powerful.
Many blessings and when is Dr. Sue starting another energy codes program?
If you know, would you let me know? Thank you
Thank you both for this miracle moment, the breathing technique works for me, best wishes…
Well…there you go…I just got turned down TODAY for a job I felt was my dream job, one I was sure I attracted……I did not have to go far to feel disappointment and despair…I’ll keep breathing and putting one foot in front of the other…I could really use a miracle right about now:(
Guess I gotta still go through the go through to get to the other side…but I’m a bit weary…
I just get up and do what ever I am inspired to do. Once inspiration hits
me I trust that it is all for my good. Mohammed Ali Jinnah, founder of
Pakistan, had said, “Failure is a word unknown to me.” He turned every setback into a stepping stone. I am the same. Fath and trust create miracles.

I’m waiting for this miracle moment (having a perfect vision). Since January twice a day I meditate, do EFT and do Chinese exercises for my vision. It has improved but it’s still not perfect. I’m very positive and I visualize my perfect vision.
No No No that would be going backwards. I am in forward motion and is the only way I want to go…. I have been through enough stress and drama. I am moving positively with FAITH, HOPE, LOVE AND JOY. (FAILURE IS NOT IN MY VOCABULARY)
I’m currently working on an emergency room app pre-covid I began working on this idea in 2018, Emergent Access Services LLC is an app that will allow people using the emergency room in less emergent cases the option of waiting where they like for the duration of the visit and receive notification from the Emergent Access Services App when it is almost their time to be seen. I knew nothing about going from idea to market or even how to start. There is an undying belief that thee person will believe in my initiative and support me. I have been told no, ignored and told how unreliable, unseasoned business woman I am and because I don’t know how the bureaucracy part is put together that I am just an ideas woman. I refuse to give up even having the reputation in the ecosystem I’m currently in is that I’m outta my league and under qualified. I’d rather continue to fail than to quit or not do anything at all.
I just love you guys…Your profound desire to help support and encourage everyone and this planet with your teachings, exercices , knowledge and insights,,Wow! really inspires me…I’m a believer, to me everything is possible..When your intention is clear and you set your mind to it…Yes miracles happen.
I just need to feel the momentum, when things are really clear that’s when I
make the move..Just yesterday, I’ve been wanting to assist the zumba teacher
up front of the group of 28 and it happened yesterday…
.Right now, I’m just following my priorities…Asking universe to send me the proper tech aid to complete my HFNR certification, I know it’s going to happen..
.But,I’m dealing with other challenges in my personal life that require
letting go, staying focused, no matter who is constantly trying to intimidate and stop me…
I have experienced other situations in the past when someone would try to block me or hold me back either my mom , my ex husband or mother in law , some friends but when things were really clear I would put them into action no matter what…For example when I returned to University to complete my Bachelor’s degree in Education without my
husband’s approuval…I registered secretly and finally told him when I started
my session..Paid and did evrything on my own,.I knew I was cut out for that and got straight ‘A’s..
And that degree really served me added to my previous years with the Canadian Reserve Army Force… I’ve been teaching all my life, and I just loved it…
As a youth I always felt the urge to help and encourage people to get the best out of their life starting with my dad and brothers who were struggling with mental issues, with others who were sad , or needed help on how to do or communicate certain things, how to explain or move out of struggle , pain or
how to get them to see and develop their strenghs, skills, abilities and qualities ..
I ‘ve always had a tendency to boost others …I’m now still working on myself ..
Well that’s it for today…
Thanks for your constant ‘boost’
Merci avec beaucoup de gratitude,
I’m so grateful for ‘todo’
Muchas gracias, grazie!!!
Love you Angels,
Josiane Savoie

Yes! This is actually one of the songs in my animated/live-action musical, The MicroCosmicCartoon Show. It is called “Breathe” and is the climax of the movie when all else has failed for Josh, the protagonist.
“Never wait in expectation of perfection or you’ll wait forever. Do the best you can with what you’ve got, and be one of those who dared rather than those who merely dream.” — J.K. Rowling. Ah, yes, that’s my block – I expect perfection from everything I do, and yes, I am still waiting! Thank You Marci and Dr. Sue for this presentation. It’s the perfect message I need to hear this week as I am preparing to create new series of paintings. Breathe… So Hum… Namaste.
