Reader's Digest is looking for a few men and women who have experienced significant setbacks. If you've tasted failure, either in your personal or professional life, we'd like to hear your story and possibly include it in a future article. Perhaps you were fired from a job or had a business go under. Maybe you screwed up a relationship with a son, daughter, parent or spouse. Perhaps you failed to take care of your health and it caught up to you. Maybe you committed a crime that you now regret. Or perhaps you were blindsided by some other thing that, in retrospect, you should have seen coming.
We're looking for people who have been beaten up a bit by life but, most important, who didn't stay down for long. We're looking for men and women who learned valuable lessons from their brush with failure and emerged stronger, more successful and with a few inspirational life-lessons to share with our readers.
How to Be Considered
If you'd like to be considered, email us a brief account of your story along with how we can get in touch with you. We'll keep all submissions confidential and will contact you if we'd like to include your story and advice in our article.
Important: Please make sure your email's subject line reads Inspirational Lessons. Address all emails to letters@rd.com.
