OpenRoom can't fail

OpenRoom can't fail.

Failure depends entirely on how you define success. If success is reduced to selling X or meeting your KPIs, there is room for failure if you don't get the expected result.

In OpenRoom, we believe that failure is quite literally impossible. Why?

Success for OpenRoom is as follows:

1. Give it our best to create a healthy and prosperous company.
2. Do it with love and joy. Do it right here, right now.

We are not saying we should not plan or think about the outcome of our actions (e.g., expanding into a new market), but we are saying that it is ten times easier to measure our success based on how we did it rather than on the product of our actions.

Implicitly, we will do whatever is in our power to create the expected result, but whether it happens or not is beyond our control.

Suddenly, when we "focus on the how," the world loses the weight it once had on us, and, magically, we start daring ourselves to do what we weren't, and we start breaking the limitations we once set upon ourselves.

We don't fight our fears, nor do we run from them. We embrace them, give them the space they deserve, and remove the leverage they had over us. This Opens a completely new room, a new world, a new life.
