Win or Lose!
This week we share a powerful message from author and speaker, Jon Gordon. Jon’s message really resonated with us, in my hockey career I have experienced my share of losing, but as I tell the kids I coach, we either win or we learn.
The only way we really lose is if we didn’t learn anything from the loss that will make us better prepared for our next game.
Jon’s message gives us a much healthier perspective on winning and losing.

Only one team wins the Super Bowl.
For each player on the Kansas City Chiefs going to Disney World after the game, there is a player on the San Francisco 49ers going home disappointed without the joy of victory.
It's a lot like life.
Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose.
Sometimes we win the account, the game, the job promotion, the award and sometimes we lose the very thing we want most.
Winning matters. Losing matters. But in life what matters most is what we do with our wins and losses.
When we win, do we become complacent or stay humble and hungry?
People often say that success breeds success but often it breeds complacency. After a win people think they can just show up and achieve the same result, forgetting the effort, determination and mindset it took to achieve the win.
To continue winning it's essential to turn the euphoria of winning, into a fire of burning desire that fuels your continuous improvement, passion, and quest for excellence.
Even more important than what we do after our wins, is how we respond to our losses. Do we give up or come back stronger? Do we allow the loss to act like a cancer that eats away at us for the rest of our life, or do we turn it into a learning opportunity that leads to our healthy growth?
I certainly know what it feels like to lose. I've lost many arguments with my wife. My book The Energy Bus was rejected by the first 30 publishers. As a salesperson years ago, I lost as many accounts as I won. I lost too many games as a lacrosse player at Cornell and now I watch my children lose tennis matches and lacrosse games.
Everyone loses but the key is to make the loss stand for something.
In my family LOSS now stands for: (Learning Opportunity, Stay Strong)
When we lose, we ask what we can learn from this loss and how we can improve because of it. Then we stay strong and work harder to get better.
This leads to more wins in the future...and also eventually more loses...and more learning opportunities and opportunities to stay strong and develop our character.
Through this process of winning and losing, we learn the greatest lesson of all:
No matter how hard we work and how much we improve there will be times when we experience the worst of defeats instead of the greatest of victories. But ultimately life is about more than winning or losing. It’s about the lessons we learn, the character and strength we build and the people we become along the way.
When we realize this, we will surely be a winner in the game of life!
If your business needs a marketing team that gets results and cares about our client’s needs, give us a call. We're here to help!
Have a great day unless you chose otherwise!
