Mistakes are the best teachers in life. We've all made plenty of mistakes during our lives- enough to probably fill up several books. However, those who make the most mistakes are those who stand to learn the most, that is, only if they can identify the wrongdoing, own up to it, and understand the reason behind it. Welcome to The Winning Move Podcast! In this solo episode, we will talk about the reason we had to let go of 5 PEOPLE in one of our companies and shut it down. In this process, mistakes were made. However, life is not about not having mistakes at all, but learning from them! Tune right in to learn what those mistakes were, and the valuable lesson this experience has left behind. “Even a mistake may turn out to be the one thing necessary to a worthwhile achievement.” - Henry Ford
