When trying to learn or master a new skill, failure is the best teacher.

Tasting successes early on during the learning phase has the risk of building overconfidence or delusion. Failing early on enables us to examine the effort and improve the next time around.

Loss should not be seen as a personal defeat but rather as a learning opportunity.

We don’t give up the first few times we lose a game. We learn by losing.

Learning the art of losing is vital. Not all ideas or decisions we make in our career are going to be successful.
