1 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 1: What's going on. It is a people shark haired Damon 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: John with a motivation moment for you, courtesy of That 3 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:12,120 Speaker 1: Moment Podcast with Damon John, a production of The Black 4 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 1: Effect Podcast Network and iHeartRadio. Here's the fact Michael Jordan's 5 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: attributed to saying, I have missed more than nine thousand 6 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,080 Speaker 1: shots in my career, and I have lost three hundred 7 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,799 Speaker 1: games twenty six times. I've been trusted to take the 8 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: game winning shot and I missed, and I failed over 9 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: and over again, and that is why I succeed. Let's 10 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: talk about if people use this word called failure. Failure 11 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: is part of the process. And anybody who told you 12 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 1: that they have been winning ever since the day they 13 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: got straight out of the gate, they are the luckiest 14 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 1: man a woman on the planet and or they are 15 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: a ball face liar, and I think they're a ball 16 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: face liar. 17 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 2: You see, failing in any capacity is what tells us 18 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 2: how we can pivot and what we should learn to 19 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 2: do and not to do any further. 20 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 1: You see, by the time somebody launches a great brand 21 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: and everything was perfect and it takes them six months, 22 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: my team and I, we have failed one thousand times 23 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: in very small attempts, because now we've gotten all the 24 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: things out of the way that we know that we 25 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: shouldn't do any longer. 26 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 2: Listen, you already heard from me. 27 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: I have gotten turned down my twenty seven banks, and 28 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: I almost want bankrupt three separate times. By the way, 29 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: every single time that I went into a room when 30 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: somebody told me no, I didn't take it personal. Maybe 31 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: I didn't communicate what I was trying to accomplish effectively. 32 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: Maybe I didn't study them well enough. Maybe the price 33 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: is too high, maybe the price is too low, maybe 34 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: they had a bad day. I didn't take it personal. 35 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: I just kissed another frog. It was all part of 36 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: the failure. You don't go to Vegas if you never 37 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: played blackjack before and play one thousand dollars a hand. 38 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: The first time you go to Vegas and you play 39 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: one thousand one dollar hands, make sure you use failure 40 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: as something that fuels you. However, if you fail and 41 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: you don't learn from it, that is a bigger failure. 42 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: You have to fail and say, how do I analyze 43 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: what I did, what I didn't do, what I should 44 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: do later? 45 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: Who was around me, how I communicated it? 46 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: And we can go over all of those on my 47 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: next podcast, because you can send me some of your 48 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: failures and ask some questions.
