Core Philosophies and Rants (Louis Rossmann)

How to properly reflect on failure.

04 Nov 2025

Description

This episode discusses the concept of failure and the crucial differences in how successful and unsuccessful people perceive and handle it. The key distinction lies in their approach to goals and their focus on either the past or the future. Successful individuals set valid goals, which are achievable actions they can take in the future, such as "next time I will use the proper screwdriver." Conversely, invalid goals focus on the past, such as "I should have used the proper screwdriver," which cannot be changed and thus perpetuate a cycle of failure.Louis emphasizes the importance of framing failures in terms of future actions rather than past mistakes. By focusing on what can be controlled and improved in the future, individuals and teams can maintain motivation and a positive outlook. This forward-thinking approach not only provides a chance for success but also instills confidence and a sense of possibility within a team. It suggests that there will be a "next time," encouraging continuous effort and improvement.(I am not affiliated with Louis Rossmann)Original Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvhTgA4IVnM
