The Art of Crashing

• 🏄‍♀️ Camille Styles mentions listening to Laird Hamilton on Oprah's Masterclass.
• 🌊 Hamilton, a big wave surfer, discusses the "art of crashing," emphasizing that wiping out is more frequent than riding a wave, even for experts. "People don't realize, you know, if you're a great surfer, you are going to wipe out many more times than you actually ride a wave."
• 💡 Crashing skillfully, though unapplauded, is crucial for the surfing journey.
• 💪 Styles connects this to the importance of resilience in failure, using failures as jumping-off points for success. "...mastering the art of crashing is probably like one of the biggest keys to success we can have because we can use all those failures as jumping off points."
• 🤔 Styles notes that humans generally lack practice in skillful "crashing."

Key Takeaway: Mastering the art of crashing, or failing gracefully, is key to success.
