Most people romanticize mastery.
They talk about "grit" and "passion" and "work ethic," but avoid the uncomfortable truth:
Mastery is build by failing-- over and over again. In public, in private, both big and small failures. Failure is followed by recovery and reflection and leveling up.
In this recording, you can hear me teaching this idea to my students in the Global Impact Council, which is our internal teen mentoring program.
Enjoy the call!
