Taking Your Losses Personally

We can’t succeed all the time, as Gordon recently found out. Wins are easy to celebrate, but losses feel far more personal. But as Gordon learned recently, there’s always a way to put a positive spin on a loss. And is it a good thing to take those losses personally? In this week’s show, Gordon talks about how to turn those losses into positives, and how to spin a bad situation into a lesson of growth.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   In life, when something knocks you back, especially if it happens repeatedly, there’s a danger that we start to take those losses personally. Taking a loss personally is actually a positive thing. Why did you fail? Why didn’t this work out? How can you ensure that this doesn’t happen again? You often learn more from failure than you do from success. Once you get into the habit of failing, it’s far more difficult to break the chain. The key to breaking that chain is to start taking those losses personally. Remind yourself of why you set that goal, or that target, and get back on track! This thesis should not apply only to business, but to all elements of our personal lives. What problems are holding us back as human beings? What issues, sometimes ignored, are holding us back from achieving our full potential? And if we confront them, how can we grow?   BEST MOMENTS   ‘You don’t lose that often, which is good’ ‘If you take that loss personally, then you’re definitely going to try and do something about it’ ‘We all know that we can’t win at everything all the time’ ‘By going back to your “Why”, it remakes whatever it is, personal for you’    VALUABLE RESOURCES   The Property Entrepreneur Podcast   ABOUT THE HOST Welcome to the Property Entrepreneur Podcast.
