Make Sure You Learn From Your Mistakes

If you make a mistake from time to time...

You're human.

If you make the same mistake repeatedly...

You're negligent.

...and your inability to learn from your previous mistakes will ultimately give you a lifetime of pain and frustration.

There isn't a single person on earth who doesn't fuck up every now and then.

I do.

You do.

We all do.

That's okay.

...and the reality is...

Making mistakes and falling on your ass is a necessary element to becoming great.

Expect it.

The real problem presents itself when you fail to extract the lessons from your previous mistakes...

...and continue to make the same mistake over and over again.

Understand that winning is a very simple concept.

It's about showing up every single day to execute with the proper effort and intent...

Making a bunch of mistakes...

Learning from those mistakes...

...and applying what you learned moving forward.

If you do that for long enough ... You will win.

Which literally means there are only two ways you can actually lose.

1. If you quit.

2. If you continue to make the same mistakes.

I recommend you don't do either.
