116 – Learn to Lose
from Challenges Build Champions with Matt Scoletti · host Matt Scoletti
Who likes to lose? Nobody! However, we seem to be focused more on participation trophies and trying to let everyone “win.” I think this sets kids up for failure down the road. In life, everyone will lose at something. I’ve lost almost every single fitness event I’ve entered. I’ve won a few also. But losing helps drive me and you to get better! Michael Jordan lost. He also got CUT from his Varsity basketball team in high school. That motivated him to practice and play 10 times as hard the next season. I believe losing and learning to lose is essential for a happy life and a resilient life. Let’s encourage people who lose to keep pushing. Learn to lose with grace and use it as motivation to keep leveling your game up.
