Winning vs. Learning: Redefining Success in Sobriety
We are either winning or we are learning – There is no such thing as failure.
What if every setback was actually a step forward? In this eye-opening episode of 'Beyond Sober', host Kohdi Rayne challenges the traditional notion of failure, suggesting that we're either winning or learning—never failing. This episode dives into how curiosity and objective thinking can transform your recovery journey.
Instead of reacting emotionally, Kohdi encourages listeners to ask questions like 'What’s motivating them to say that?' or 'What makes that happen?' This shift helps you see challenges as opportunities for growth rather than obstacles. Kohdi breaks down why knowing what doesn’t work is just as crucial as celebrating wins. By focusing on learning, you prepare yourself for future success, turning every experience into valuable information.
The episode also explores the idea that continuous learning is far more beneficial than constant winning. If you're always winning, you're simply practicing what you're already good at, missing out on new insights. Kohdi emphasizes that all events are meant for you to learn from, not necessarily to own or react to. This mindset can be a game-changer for anyone on the path to sobriety, offering a fresh perspective on personal growth and emotional well-being.
Tune in to discover how adopting this mindset can help you navigate your recovery journey with resilience and optimism.
