I Prepared My Daughters For Failure – Beyonce’s Father 

Mathew Knowles, father of American singer and actress, Beyonce, has shared some of the lessons he taught his daughters.

In a couple of tweets, Knowles revealed that he prepared his daughters on how to overcome failure.

He also said he had been teaching them from a very young age on how to respond to the crowd, especially if things go wrong during performance.

“One thing I taught Beyoncé and Solange was to practice failure. We would practice how they’d respond if their microphone got cut off, if their shoes broke on stage, or if the wrong song got queued in their performance set.

“Anything can happen……and they were always prepared to have a response! I would like for you to consider the same lesson. Whether you’re a performer or artist, or an entrepreneur or professional, practice how you’ll respond in the event you fail. It’s a skill that can and should be developed!,” he tweeted

Knowles once managed the careers of Beyoncé and Solange.
