In Day 70 of 1% Better. Daily., our hosts take us deep into a mindset that transforms how high performers handle failure: every mistake is just a “mis-take”—another rep toward mastery.
In this powerful episode, we unpack the psychological tools elite performers use to recover fast, grow stronger, and keep moving forward with clarity.
You’ll learn how to shift from shame to strategy using Coach Ed Padalecki’s mental reset technique he borrowed from Olympic gold Medalist Lanny Basham: “Needs work.”
