Investing in Future Growth Over Present Comfort
Individuals who consistently succeed and recover from failures focus on investing their egos in future growth rather than seeking comfort in the present. Accepting feedback and criticism without letting it affect their ego is key. The first score, which is based on past performance and feedback, cannot be changed. The optimal response is to aim for a better 'second score' by showing resilience and improvement, which is a hallmark of a healthy ego. This approach involves embracing feedback as a motivation to demonstrate growth and excellence.
