On this episode of the podcast, Chewy shares his thoughts on a quote that he read from a Steve Jobs (former apple CEO) autobiography that said “We’ve had some good times, we’ve had some hard times, but we’ve never had bad times.” Chewy shares a story from a tournament where he had a frustrating match and how he used this experience to adjust his game and win future matches, how getting beat up when he was younger impacted his life for the better, and how the pandemic caused a lot of worry but forced him to adjust and focus on what he could control. We also discuss gaining perspective on a difficult situation, having a “default mode” when dealing with challenging situations, and the pain associated with learning.
