Avail Yourself Sometimes You Win Sometimes You Learn Crafted By John C. Maxwell Displayed As Copy
you have experienced failure and it still holds onto you, then this book is for YOU! :
I would like to share some of my favorite notes I took while reading,
“How does a humble person learn from mistakes By pausing and reflecting.
I strongly believe that experience isnt the best teacher evaluated experience is, ”
“Wisely humble people are never afraid to admit they were wrong, When they do its like saying theyre wiser today than they were yesterday, ”
“Responsibility is the most important ability that a person can possess, ”
“Positive thinking must be followed by positive doing, ”
“The habits you practice every day will make you or break you, If you want to become a teachable person who learns from losses, then make learning your daily habit, It may not change your life in a day, But it will change your days for life, ”
“One of lifes important question is Who am I But even more important is Who am I becoming”
“Winning isnt everything, but learning is.
”
P. S: I want you to become a continual winner by being a habital learner,
Another great book by John Maxwell, I am impressed by this author with every new book he writes, Easy to read full of easy to understand information, It is a great resource for those of us who have to lead and any one who wishes to be a leader De todos los libros que he leído de este autor, considero que este es uno de los mejores ya que mediante técnicas muy fáciles de aplicar uno puede maximizar el aprender de sus propios errores para el logro de objetivos a corto, mediano y largo plazo dichas técnicas son desglosadas de forma muy elocuente por el autor mediante situaciones o historias de vida que fueron casos de éxito una vez que los errores fueron asimilados por cada uno de los personajes.
Sin lugar a dudas es uno de los libros que recomiendo de este autor que todos deberíamos leer para lograr nuestros objetivos personales.
Learned alot with this book, John Maxwell believes that the greatest lessons we learn in life are from our losses, Everyone experiences loss, but not everyone learns from it, In Sometimes You WinSometimes You Learn, Dr, Maxwell explores the most common lessons we learn when we experience loss, He then explains how to turn a setback into a step forward by examining the eleven elements that make up the DNA of Those Who Learn:.
Humility The Spirit of Learning
, Reality The Foundation of Learning
, Responsibility The First Step of Learning
, Improvement The Focus of Learning
, Hope The Motivation of Learning
, Teachability The Pathway of Learning
, Adversity The Catalyst of Learning
, Problems The Opportunities of Learning, Bad Experiences The Perspective for Learning, Change The Price of Learning
, Maturity The Value of Learning
Learning is not easy during down times, it takes discipline to do the right thing when everything is wrong.
This book provides a roadmap to doing just that, As John Maxwell often points outexperience isn't the best teacher evaluated experience is,
This book couldnt have come at a better time for me, I was dealing with a difficult work situation and getting very angry and reading this book helped put it all into perspective.
Life isnt easy but it can be better and more fulfilling if you look at negatives as a way to learn and grow.
It is all about perspective and looking forwards to self improvement,
From the opening beautiful into by the late John Wooden through the amazingly inspirational quotes sprinkled throughout, John C.
Maxwell does a wonderful job of laying out the case for learning and growing through failures and disappointments,
I really loved how the book was setup with each section being specific to one of his eleven elements that make up people who learn from mistakes:
.
Humility The Spirit of Learning
, Reality The Foundation of Learning
, Responsibility The First Step of Learning
, Improvement The Focus of Learning
, Hope The Motivation of Learning
, Teachability The Pathway of Learning
, Adversity The Catalyst of Learning
, Problems The Opportunities of Learning
, Bad Experiences The Perspective for Learning
, Change The Price of Learning
, Maturity The Value of Learning
One of the most important takeaways is the need for personal accountability which is a trait that is sorely lacking
from American society.
I truly feel like I have a better handle on how to tackle change, problems and failures thanks to this book, and I know that I will be rereading this often.
I also plan on purchasing at least one copy for the office as well as for my coworkers, this is an important book especially during turbulent times.
sitelink com/bookreviewsom .for Kindle. If you cant make a mistake, you cant make anything, Heel veel gemarkeerd in dit boek, Maxwell zet een dikke vette streep onder het feit dat je alleen maar kan groeien als je valt en weer opstaat.
Ik leg het boek weg met dit gevoel: ik voel me aangemoedigd en empowered te proberen, experimenteren en ontdekken.
Many of lifes greatest discoveries are found when we are willing to go off the main road, by trying things we never tried before.
While there were some great nuggets in this book, there is nothing new or original, In fact, the author spends most of his time quoting others, The title could be "Everything Everyone Else Said About Learning", eh This book was full of cliches, At times I was like hey did this dude sit down at my last training for work and takes notes cause the stuff he was presenting in this book is super similar.
Add to that that he relies a lot on quotes from others who often say his point better than he does and it's like right all of this has been said before.
Not to give him no credit at times the information is presented in an interesting way, And there are some useful things in here, But overall this is nothing new, He tells a lot of stories which really up the page count, And didn't always feel necessary,
Further, this dude glorifies adversity and yet seems super disconnected from what others experience, He points out that some folks would say that "it's more difficult for people who are underprivileged, facing adversity, or suffering pain", but he doesn't think so.
And you are like, but it would be more difficult, I used to workhours a week, Commuting.hours to work. I had no time to even think, I was tired all the time and it would have been super difficult to meet his guidelines for being teachable.
It's shows his privilege in him assuming that folks have time for this stuff,
He talks a big game about adversity, but his examples of his struggles just don't click, You spentk to have a passport delivered to you Cool thats about what I make in a year.
You lost a million dollars in a bad decision you made and you couldn't really afford to lose so much money and had to sell some of your investments I've never had a million dollars to invest.
I won't say losing your mother isn't a struggle, but you had her foryears of your life, You are an adult and thats a lot of love you got to receive, And it is part of life that parents die, I just see a lot of privilege, a lot of wealth and a disconnect from the lives that others lead in this book.
He brings up depression in passing, but doesn't really address how a depressed person might be able to utilize his advice just that they lack energy because they have no hope.
Overall, he came off as someone who isn't presenting anything really new, he rehashed his own ideas multiple times throughout the book and he seems disconnected from others experiences.
It just wasn't what I had hoped to read, Lots of positive advice and practical suggestions for learning everyday, Filled with several humorous and touching antidotes about real people, The ultimate learning experience is evaluating and proceeding forward with a flexible plan, The title was attention getting for me, Brilliant book on Learning, especially from setbacks, John Maxwell shareskey fundamentals about learning,
No.spoke to me the most: HIMILITY: The spirit of learning I truly enjoyed this book, You always can go from " failure" to success but you never can go from "excuses" to success,
It's a great book and John is sharing what he has learned from his own and other people's mistakes.
I love the book I would recommend!.
