Episode 3: Building Resilience From Failure

In this episode, John Maxwell certified speaker and professional life coach Kobina Cato candidly talks about some failures he has experienced in his life and he shares these wisdom nuggets:

• When one does not achieve a stated objective or goal, viewing the situation as a setback as opposed to a failure, is important for future success
• A lot of people experience setbacks, but deem them as failures
• Failure is when you completely give up, decide that you can’t do this and stop trying
• Key to overcoming failure involves the courage and the willingness to shine a light on your behaviors and habits so that you can make necessary changes
• Key to overcoming failure involves changing the narrative in your head that says “you’re not good enough”, “you can’t do this”, “you just don’t have what it takes to do this”
• Key to overcoming failure are mentors to give you constructive criticism and encouragement on your journey to success
• Progress is incremental
• The timeless quote, “it’s okay to lose to an opponent, but it’s not okay to lose to fear.”
