Failure can be a huge motivator. It can also be a trap. I once took a graduate leadership class in which all the students were asked to introduce ourselves by telling of one of our failures.
What really counts is how we respond to failure and success.
This article points out that UCLA's players and coach are taking the disappointment over their championship loss and funneling it into motivation for the hard work and dedication that will get them back into the final game next season.
That shows a lot of character. Great lessons that are helpful in all of life
"'We have to remember this hurtful feeling and learn from it,' Afflalo said. 'We're not going to forget losing this game. Experiences like this, I think, allow me to work hard and try to get better. This is going to be there for a while.'"
