What’s your thoughts around failure?

Federer won nearly 80% of his matches, but only 54% of the points he played. Almost half the time, even at his peak, he was “failing.”

Tiger Woods was ranked 175th in hitting the fairway, yet he was number one in recovering from the rough. Kobe Bryant missed more shots than anyone in NBA history.

These stories remind us that failure is not a sign that something is wrong. It’s an ordinary part of competing at the highest level. What separates the greats is not that they avoid mistakes, but that they accept them, reset quickly, and fully commit to the next moment.

The same applies whether you’re on a sports field or in business. You can prepare as well as possible, and still, setbacks will come. The invitation is to treat failure as part of the process—and to keep showing up with clarity for the next point, the next pitch, the next step.
