Publisher's summary

Number-one New York Times best-selling author John C. Maxwell can teach you how to turn any situation into a winning experience.

No one wins at everything they try. But any setback, whether professional or personal, can become a step forward with the right tools and mind-set to turn loss into a gain. Drawing on nearly 50 years of leadership experience, Maxwell provides a roadmap for winning by examining the 11 elements that constitute the "DNA" of people who succeed in the face of problems, failure, and losses. Learning is not easy during down times. It takes discipline to do the right thing when something goes wrong. As John Maxwell often points out, experience itself isn't the best teacher; evaluating, understanding, and growing from your experience is. By examining how that process works, you can learn how to take risks and tackle challenges with a successful person's outlook. Derived from material previous published in Sometime You Win - Sometimes You Learn.

Very Positive Read

I thoroughly enjoyed it!!! I re-read it because it's so inspiring. I believe whoever purchases this book will find the encouragement they need in order to make them successful.

I love the first story in this book

I love the first story in this book because it once happened to me. John receives a shirt that basically says he can't learn anything because he's too busy telling people how to do things. I once received something similar to this about 20 years ago. I received it again about 8 years ago and that's when I took it seriously. I've read this book before and I enjoyed it then as much as I enjoyed it now! There are lots of great lessons here and I can see why I was led to listen to it now. I've begun a new phase in my life where failure is a constant friend. I'm taking lots of notes and learning from my failures. As you go through this book, take plenty of notes because it will help you when failure happens. It will also help you when success happens to keep you from inflating your ego!

There are better Maxwell titles out there

This isn’t one of his finest. It is full of stories and quotes that are loosely brought together.
