Before the championships, before changing the game of basketball forever — Steph Curry spent the worst summer of his life deliberately getting worse. At 15, his father Dell Curry told him his shot had to be completely rebuilt. For three months he could barely make a basket.

In this episode of 3-Minute Reframe, I use Curry's story to explore one of the most underrated growth skills there is — the willingness to get worse before you get better, and how to know whose feedback is actually worth that kind of sacrifice.
