What can the Seattle Seahawks’ dramatic 2015 Super Bowl loss teach us about our relationship with failure? In this week’s episode, Luke illustrates how professional athletes learn from their mistakes by watching game tape. He extends this concept to our own personal development, emphasizing the need to analyze our actions, understand our failures, and grow from them. Takeaways Lack of willpower is not the real problem - it’s having a messed up relationship with failure. Watch “game tape” and analyze failures objectively. Reviewing mistakes allows you to understand what led to them and how to improve. Process failures with coaches and mentors who can provide perspective. Reframe failures as opportunities to learn and evolve.
