Publisher's summary

number-one New York Times best-selling author John C. Maxwell believes that any setback, whether professional or personal, can be turned into a step forward when you possess the right tools to turn a loss into a gain. Drawing on nearly fifty years of leadership experience, Dr. Maxwell provides a roadmap for winning by examining the eleven elements that constitute the DNA of learners who succeed in the face of problems, failure, and losses.

1. Humility - The Spirit of Learning
2. Reality - The Foundation of Learning
3. Responsibility - The First Step of Learning
4. Improvement - The Focus of Learning
5. Hope - The Motivation of Learning
6. Teachability - The Pathway of Learning
7. Adversity - The Catalyst of Learning
8. Problems - The Opportunities of Learning
9. Bad Experiences - The Perspective for Learning
10. Change - The Price of Learning
11. Maturity - The Value of Learning

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 isn't the best teacher; evaluated experience is.

once again John Maxwell nailed it

I love it when John breaks it down in such a way that all that is left is for me to act.

Awesome Book

I really enjoyed this book. It puts into perspective that you may not win every situation and it is ok. Sometimes you WIN Sometimes you LEARN from every situation.

A chapter at time

Sometimes you win gives many lessons on leadership, how to become a
good leader and how to find the greatness within yourself. Try not to take to much in at a time. The author gives so much helpful and useful information, if you are open to it you will see what you need to do to impliment it. Don't try to digest too much to quickly. Take each chapter slowly!!!
