Key Points
  • We will often learn a lesson but because it seems trivial, we don’t remember it for the next time.
  • The way you practice determines how you perform.
  • Write down what you want to be known for and then share that with others.
  • The ability to humble yourself and admit when you’ve missed the mark will give you compassion for others when they fail.
