Don't just take it from me -- take it from one of the best ever at his craft: Kobe Bryant. We can learn from his approach and enjoy the process by embracing failure.
Kobe Bryant says you can't be afraid to fail. Embrace it and use it as information to improve. Ask yourself, what did I do well? What do I need to improve? I've already done two videos on that concept.
I was listening to an interview recently with Kobe Bryant and Lewis Howe, and the overall message is you can't be afraid to fail. Embrace it and use it as information to improve. Kobe Bryant always has nuggets of wisdom, and it's the same here. He said that failure is exciting because it means you have different ways to get better. Lewis, the host, asked him, oh, so you probably learned more from failure than winning? And Kobe said, no, it's the same thing as long as you process it the same way.
Whether you win or lose, succeed or fail, ask yourself the same questions and go about the process the same way. Ask yourself, what did I do well? What do I need to improve and what did I learn? I've already done two videos on that concept where I break down the reflection framework, known as well Better Learn or WBL for short on Cadre. It's called WBL Using Reflection to Accelerate Growth and WBL Part 2 Reflection Tool. The message is simple. Embrace all life experiences, including failure, as feedback to get better.
