Two gems. Thank you - I'm going to have to borrow these next time I discuss failure. About the second - do you have any tips on making your perception more learning based?




Learning is about the future. You want to take knowledge you have gained and use it to make the future more like what you want the future to be.

So then, when you perceive something, ask yourself, "How will additional events like this one affect my future?" Imagine scenarios where the event might occur again and play them out in your mind. Imagine yourself reacting the same way or a different way. Like playing chess.
