I needed this today - my boyfriend just showed me the clip. Not only in sports but in everything ”Failure is just one step closer to the success” ❤

[@goombapizza6335]

Is it, though? Is it? If your goal is to win a championship in 2023, and you get eliminated from the 2023 championship contest, are you really closer to your goal of winning the championship in 2023? I guess the trick to life is this: set nebulous goals with no specific terms or deadlines, and then you can never fail.

[@satomorgana5283]

your boyfriend cheated you, but it's ok, he's not cheating you everyday. It's just a step to not cheating in future, so it's nevermind, he can't be faithful to you always. Just wait some more years, all is fine. Failure is just one step closer to the success ❤

[@s2Capacidade2s]

not only in sports, this can be shown in most companies too, lots of people are afraid of failing and they don't try or take risks... you need to calculate your risk, obviously, but you must be allowed to fail, everyone should be allowed to fail

Eric gonna be front row to ask him that question next year

What he said it's what's missing from almost every modern sport. This guy is a champion in every sense, because he understands true sporting values, something that is missing especially in American Sports (where the only thing that counts is victory).

This is what a roll model looks like kids. This is why he will be remembered as one of the best to ever play when he retires. It's more then on the court. True greatness is in the mind 💯 as a 76ers fan. I commend the great freak for being so grounded and real in a strange world

Loving the message. Sports is about trying, failing, trying again and failing again, always trying better every time.

I saved this speech in my phone if I need motivation/inspiration. He just gave you about a 75% answer on what is the meaning of life without being asked the question “What is the meaning of life” question. At least that’s how I interpret it and if that interpretation makes me better then I’ll keep believing. Much love.

I'm not into sports, but this is mind-blowingly fabulous! This is for anyone living life. The question was mean, has no purpose other than to put someone down. Message to the media: Stop demonizing us to get your ratings!! Build Americans up! Stop beating us up, so we can rise from the ashes of the damage you are doing!!🙏 Wonderful response!🙏👏 I saved this to play everyday for myself. I've already shared it. I will share it in classrooms everywhere I go!💪🎉

[@Tommie22x]

you cant always win! thats a fact of life. our social media cultural encourages only success, and anything less is considered failure is frankly unhealthy. which is why so many people get so triggered when they lose. and try to cancel or fight anyone when they do lose. This fear of "losing face" is not something we should be teaching the next generation. Giannis thank you for spreading such a positive message about resilience and strength! English is not your first language but that was beautifully said!🎉

[@MBoSS-ix3gf]

There is failure in sports 10,000%. It's what you do with that feeling and that pressure that matters. I see what he's getting at because failure is only truly real if it defines you. He should have won this year though.
